Notice Title

NU/1381 The Supply & Installation of Flip-Top Versatile PC Desks to Merz Court

Notice Description

The School of Engineering has recently undertaken a series of user engagement workshops exploring PC cluster provision in Merz Court. Examining teaching methods alongside innovative learning spaces, a flexible cluster has been designed to meet future requirements of our students and staff. Capable of accommodating up to 118 students across two rooms (73 and 45 respectively), the space can facilitate individual taught and self-study activity as well as group working. The design of this space is intended to allow the furniture configuration to be altered to the needs of the activity taking place; as a traditional PC cluster with high performance desktop computers or as flat mini-conference style desking for small group work and study. The desk furniture therefore needs to reflect the multiple requirements of the space and be flexible enough to allow reconfiguration without the involvement of specialist or support staff; the main aspect of this is to allow the storage of displays, mice and keyboards when the desks are in their group study, or flat working space configuration.
