Immersive learning spaces at Birkbeck

At Birkbeck, you can use state-of-the-art virtual reality (VR) workstations, create your own virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) content and borrow headsets and 360 cameras. 

All of the spaces are located in Birkbeck's main Malet Street Building, next to and in the library.
