The project involves the demolition of a single storey building containing lecture theatres and putting up a seven-storey building in its place.
The new building, on the intersection of Broad Lane and Newcastle Street in the city, will provide more than 5,000 square metres of office, teaching and research space for post-graduate and post-doctorate students.
The project is part of a £40m refurbishment programme for the university’s faculty of engineering.
