New situations bring new solutions in the higher education sector. With the continuous impact of COVID-19 pandemic across the globe, an increasing number of universities have been facing lockdown and online teaching and learning technologies are implemented worldwide. The faculty is also seeking for solutions to provide an interactive and immersive tour experience for prospective students, parents, visitors from partner institutions even though they are not allowed to enter the campus temporarily.
Faculty of Science and Engineering launched the 360° VR Lab Tour in the end of 2020 and with a couple of month efforts it has been officially online. The project aims to provide the off-campus audience a way to visit the base camp of FoSE—Sir Peter Mansfield Building and Sir David and Lady Susan Greenaway Building and the cutting-edge research laboratories and facilities through deploying 360° Virtual Reality Panorama technology. This project covers the most of the faculty teaching and research laboratories in the science and engineering disciplines, such as chemistry analysis lab, civil engineering lab and computer science artificial intelligence lab.
