The new building will include three theatres, which will be used to host events and lectures.
The other features of the design include a green roof and storm water run-off as part of a plan to get a BREEAM excellent rating.
The building will provide space for 500 researchers and support staff and will also be the main academic centre for 900 undergraduates, according to bdonline.co.uk.
