Plans to build a four-storey technology building at Crawley College have been approved by the borough council.
The application for a Sussex and Surrey Institute of Technology building on the College Road site was given the nod by the planning committee on Tuesday (April 23).
Paul Rolfe, associate principal of the Chichester College Group – the applicant – said Crawley was the lead on the Institute of Technology, which included the University of Brighton and the University of Sussex, with the University of Chichester going through the legal process to join the consortium.
He added: “The Institute of Technology will bring a range of major benefits. It will boost educational participation amongst residents at Level 4 and above. It will deliver a responsive, employer-led curriculum in digital, engineering, manufacturing as well as advanced construction.
