Facilities and equipment

Our students have access to state-of-the-art, industry-standard equipment, including the on-site Keele Observatory. Opening September 2019, the Central Science Laboratories will provide a new learning environment for students.

Observatory

Keele has an on-campus Observatory, which opens regularly to the public and recently underwent a £250,000 refurbishment. It houses a 24-inch telescope capable of research-quality imaging, a 6-inch solar telescope and a 12-inch refractor built in 1874. The Observatory is readily accessible to our students, several of whom get actively involved in its operation.
