OUR FACILITIES
Central London Campus at London Bridge
The College campus is located near London Bridge, just a short distance from the prestigious ‘Tower Bridge’; a stone’s throw distance from the ‘London Dungeon’; the South Bank University campus and the 400 years old historic Kings College. These are some of the most eminent parts of the city. CITEC is conveniently located in Central London near the river Thames and all the prime attractions in London are within easy reach. London Underground stations, National Railway termini and 24-hour bus services are located close by the College campus.

 

Classrooms:
The CITEC campus comprises 3 premises located in Mermaid Court, London Bridge. The College facilities are spread over these 3 premises and they are conveniently located opposite to each other. The teaching is organised over 21 study hours per week, with class room provision for small groups of 20 to 30 students per class giving a healthy student - teacher ratio. We also conduct more intensive revision classes, mock examinations, tutor - aided and self - study sessions, all with easy access to our teaching staff.

A fully stocked library with over 2000 reference books and excellent seating arrangements for quiet and professional referral work is provided for our students.
