The Doctoral Academy Building at 1-3 Museum Place

We offer a welcoming space for postgraduate research students to connect, work, learn and take time away from the research environment.

Based in 1-3 Museum Place, we are at the heart of the Cathays campus, a short distance from Cathays station, Main Building and the Centre for Student Life. Opening Hours are Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 20:00.

  • kitchen facilities
  • communal space for relaxing or informal meetings
  • a quiet room
