An East Midlands university is expanding by opening a campus in London next year. Nottingham Trent University (NTU) has announced the plans for the new site which it says will be dedicated to delivering education connected to the entertainment industries.
The campus will be based around an expansion of NTU's Confetti Institute of Creative Technologies in Whitechapel. The courses set to be on offer include performance, production and business for the music industries, event management and emerging technologies such as esports.
Confetti has delivered industry education since 1994 while creating a suite of commercial businesses that supports the students' experience. These include Metronome, a music and events venue, and Confetti X, a complex dedicated to esports production which recently hosted the Commonwealth Esports Championships qualifiers.
