Coventry University is situated within an
impressive 33-acre site in the centre of one ofEnglands largest and most historic cities, its main
building located in University Square opposite the
historic architecture of Coventry Cathedral.
As well as enjoying the centrality o its location in the
Midlands, with accessible transport nationally and
internationally, students also beneft rom excellent
acilities, which include an award-winning 18 million
library, a new sports centre, and a purpose-built 35m
Student building which opens in September 2011.
Courses are designed with employability as a majortheme and students beneft rom links with major
global corporations, in addition to the opportunity o
placements both within and outside the university.
Coventry provides a unique blend o the old and new,
epitomised by the ruins o the old cathedral bombed
during World War II, next to its modern successor.
The cobbled streets and medieval buildings around
the cathedral contrast with the ountains playing in
University.
One o the major themes o Coventry as a consequence
o its cathedral being bombed and rebuilt, is peace and
reconciliation. This is reected in the cultural diversity o
the city and the welcome it extends to visitors. Coventry
attracts thousands o visitors each year because o its
history and its attractions, but it is also a university city
and as such oers a wide range o cultural and social
opportunities. There are plenty o restaurants, sport
centres, cas, the Belgrade Theatre, an ice-rink and
an eight-screen cinema complex, together with a
number o signifcant tourist spots within easy travellingdistance o the city, or example Warwick Castle,
Stratord-Upon-Avon and Coombe Abbey.
Coventry University
Coventry was established in 1043 with the ounding
o a Benedictine Abbey by Leoric, Earl o Merciaand his wie, Lady Godiva. By the thirteenth century
it had become a centre o many textile trades and its
non-ading blue cloth became highly sought ater
throughout Europe. Coventry had become the ourth
largest English city by the ourteenth century and
on several occasions became the second capital
o England with parliament moving there. Coventry
continued to thrive and in the eighteenth century
enjoyed an industrial boom which led to a massive
expansion in its population. In the twentieth century,
Coventry had become a centre o the British motorindustry, but it also suered massive devastation
during World War II when many o its historic buildings,
including the cathedral were bombed. Ater the war
the city was rebuilt, and now it is undergoing more
transormation and regeneration in order to consolidate
its position o centrality in the Midlands.
