Brunel University is based on four sites twelve miles west of London: Uxbridge, Twickenham, Runnymede and Osterley.
The Uxbridge site is south of the town centre. It is the university's main administrative base and teaching campus and is a large and modern complex with open lawns and gardens.
Twickenham, three miles from Uxbridge and close to Osterley, is a mixture of modern and historical buildings (Departments: Dance and Music)
Runnymede at Egham near Windsor, is seven miles from Uxbridge, Twickenham and Osterley (Department of Design)
Osterley at Isleworth, is three miles from Uxbridge, and close to Twickenham (Departments: Health Studies, Sport Sciences, Business Studies)
Local travel is by bus, tube or train. All sites are close to the M4, M40, and the M25 motorways.
All campuses have on-site Halls of Residence.
Most first year undergraduates based at Uxbridge or Runnymede and some based at Osterley can expect to have accommodation in campus-based residences. Other students use local rented accommodation although some may move back into halls for their final year.
