The Collections

Our University Collections are a treasure trove of artworks, inventions and discoveries. You’ll find modern and contemporary art by artists including Eduardo Paolozzi, Vanley Burke and Barbara Hepworth. Historic rarities such as an Egyptian Canopic jar with its original preserved contents. Groundbreaking technologies like one of the world's first proton synchrotron accelerators (an early precursor to CERN's Large Hadron Collider).
