Our laboratories provide important teaching and research environments.

We have access to Cockle Park Farm - a mixed farm facility, and also Nafferton Farm - comprising of two main farm units run in the Tyne Valley. The farm provides a land-based research facility for the Faculty of Science, Agriculture and Engineering, especially in the area of Organic production, demonstration facilities for teaching purposes as well as being a viable farming business.

Other off-campus facilities include research at Palace Leas Plots and the new Anaerobic Digestion Plant, which are both based at Cockle Park Farm.
