Exercise Sports Science and Sports centre.
Manchester Metropolitan University is a leading University and a powerful driver of the North West economy.As well as educating and training large numbers of the region’s legal and business professionals, engineers, teachers and creative professionals, the University is also a leader in the field of Sport and Exercise and Sport Science, and the BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise Science degree is accredited by the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES).
Manchester Met invested £10 million in 2009/10 for an Exercise, Sport Science and Sports centre at the Cheshire Campus. The project, run and built by Eric Wright Group was completed towards the end of 2010.
This investment created a state-of the-art laboratory suite with a series of large laboratory spaces; an environmental chamber, genetics and biochemistry laboratories, as well as an eight court sports hall, health and fitness suite, PC lab and sports injury clinic. There is also a 3rd generation pitch and an Olympic beach volleyball court on campus!
During the design stage of the new facility Weiss Technik UK Ltd (Formally Design Environmental Ltd) was approached to offer a solution for an environmental chamber/Sport Science Room with a hypoxic facility to become one of the corner stones within the complex. Working closely with Eric Wright Group and to a specification supplied by Prof Neil Fowler from Manchester Met, the room was installed during the build phase and commissioned in October 2010. The facility was officially opened by footballing legend Sir Bobby Charlton CBE in November 2010.
The Weiss Technik Environmental Chamber, or Sport Science Room (SSR), consists of a fully vapour sealed insulated, 50m³ room with a remote plant module located two floors above in a purpose built plant room.
