Graduate Studies Building
The Graduate Studies Building was a now-demolished building on the Westwood Campus. Adjacent to the New Education Building, it housed a number of different things throughout its life, and finished being demolished in April 2025.[1] The building featured a one-story section and a two-story section, and connected to the New Education Building via a bridge between the first floor of each building.[2][3]
Location
The Graduate Studies Building was located in the eastern-most portion of the Westwood Campus, north of the New Education Building,[4] which it connected to via a bridge.[3]
Previous uses
Like the New Education Building, the Graduate Studies Building contained "WE"-coded centrally timetabled rooms,[5][6][7] from before May 2015, when WE0.29, WE1.16 and WE1.17 were closed without notice due to potential structural issues discovered when refurbishing the building,[5] until as late as July 2023,[6] although whether they were in use this late is unclear.
The building also contained "Multimedia Labs" for an unkown period of time also including July 2023, as indicated on signs outside the building.[6][7]
Moreover, WMG used the building for an unkown period of time also including July 2023 as their logo was present on the main entrance.[6][7]
The final version of the building's floorplans before being demolished showed it containing
- three rooms housing a "History of Art Image Library" (WE0.17, WE0.19, and WE0.20),
- several store rooms,
- many rooms (including the entire first floor),
- a few offices, and
- a server room,
along with the usual lobbies, corridoors, toilets and plant rooms.[2]
