Imperial College London’s new School of Public Health building has officially topped out at its White City Campus in West London
Designed by Allies and Morrison, the School of Public Health building will provide state-of-the-art facilities to support modern advances underpinning epidemiology and public health, especially data sciences and community engagement, as well as educational facilities.
The new School for Public Health will focus on four key areas: children’s health and wellbeing, food and nutrition, community health and policy, and world health.
The development will provide new educational and administrative spaces
In addition to leading the construction programme, GRAHAM is also fitting out almost 58,000 sq ft of space across the nine-storey building, providing a series of spaces to enhance teaching, learning, and research for academics, students, collaborators, and the local community.
Educational facilities in this space will include a common space, study rooms and a large lecture area. The development also includes five floors of office space and meeting rooms for staff, basement plant space for changing facilities, and bike storage. At the ground floor level there will be shared space with open-plan meeting areas.
Speaking when the development was announced, partner at Allies and Morrison Paul Eaton said, “Designed with flexibility in mind, this building will provide a friendly, inviting and beautiful setting for the School of Public Health’s vital work in the future.”

Its new home at the White City Campus will amplify our collaborations, innovation and our teaching and research locally, nationally, and internationally.”
