The campus has a vast parking lot for students and the institution’s faculty,as well as a range of gardened green areas which provide pleasant and comfortable spaces for its users.

On campus, students can find a variety of services which they need, including a library, reprography/copy room, restaurant and bar, fixed and wireless internet access, among other services made available to them. In addition, the city of Gandra, which is home to the academic campus, presently has all the comforts and services which its residents could possibly need, including a pharmacy, health centre, restaurants, post offices and banks, among other services and facilities, making Gandra an attractive and very pleasant place to live.

The city also offers an ample range of housing options for rental or purchase in the area surrounding the academic campus, thereby making it rather easy for a student to find a housing situation which corresponds to their needs.
