Our Locations

Waterside building

We are located across two sites:

  • Waterside, Durham, DH1 1SL, in the heart of Durham City Centre, in the new, innovation district on the banks of the River Wear.
  • Mill Hill Lane, Durham, DH1 3LB, a short walk from Stockton Road and other University facilities.

Our Department of Management and Marketing is located at Waterside, and our Departments of Accounting, Economics and Finance will remain at Mill Hill Lane until further notice.

Teaching occurs across campus, and staff, students and visitors will have access to both locations.
