Marine & Built Environment Centre

The new Marine & Built Environment Centre (MBEC) at the Rhos-on-Sea Campus opened its doors to hundreds of new students in September 2009.

Offering state-of-the-art facilities for students studying Construction, Marine Technology and Sustainability & Renewable Energy courses, the MBEC cost £8.2 million and is 50% funded by the Welsh Assembly Government.

The Renewable Energy & Sustainability Centre for Wales (RESCW) forms part of the new MBEC. The RESCW Centre will provide local communities, businesses, schools and individuals with facilities for demonstrations, educational visits and seminars, as well as installer training and Continuous Personal Development (CPD) courses.
