Postgraduate Research Zone
The Research Zone is the main place for Institute of Advanced Studies postgraduate research training and workshops. It's an inspiring place that features a 60-seat lecture space, presentation and video conferencing facilities, two boardrooms and an informal meeting area. Postgraduate research students can use the space as they wish – for example, as a quiet study space or meeting area.
You'll find more details about the full range of library services available to University of Stirling students, staff and visitors on our Information Services webpages – including how to access our online research repository, IT services available, public memberships and more.
