We've tried to make finding your way around campus as easy as possible.
Our campus maps have been designed to help students, staff and visitors find their way around the University's campuses. You can get city maps and directions from the Student Hub in TS114, or download from the links below.
Locking up is a lengthy and complicated process that follows an approved routine. The locking up process has to ensure that security of the building is established quickly, while at the same time maintaining emergency escape routes for people vacating the building.
After 8pm, if the facilities assistants discover people working, they will courteously remind and advise them that the University will be closing in the next hour and request the premises be vacated at their earliest convenience.
Please co-operate fully with facilities assistants during this process, as this is a very busy time for them in carrying out their duties of securing the buildings.
If you are working late at night in areas of the University, other than the library, you must inform the Facilities team on 07703 207227. This is also the number to use in the unlikely event you are locked in.
You should be aware there could be a delay in the duty facilities assistant responding to a person trapped in the building, so please be patient.
To report or enquire about any lost property, please email reception at reception@solent.ac.uk with the subject 'Lost Property Enquiry'.

There are bays in convenient locations marked for the sole use of disabled drivers on both campuses. Blue badges must be displayed.
