2020/21 was the year that the College’s vision for the new Battersea campus became a reality.
New Battersea Campus
Sitting adjacent to the existing Dyson, Woo and Sackler buildings, the new Battersea campus, designed by Herzog & de Meuron, marks the College's transformation into a dynamic STEAM-focused postgraduate university (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics). As the world’s leading art and design university, the expansion of the Battersea campus will enable the College to continue to compete globally and attract the highest calibre students and future entrepreneurs.
RCA Battersea, due to open in January 2022, provides space for ten new programmes and the expansion of research and knowledge exchange centres including computer and materials science, the impact of the digital economy, advanced manufacturing and intelligent mobility. These areas of research and learning are critical to the UK economy, and the RCA has already attracted partnerships with world-leading businesses, including collaborations with Hyundai, Logitech and Snap.
As we near completion of this pillar of GenerationRCA, we’d like to thank those who have made this possible through their generous support.
