Zones

More generally, the campus is organised into Zones. The eight colleges above form eight of these zones. The remainder are:

• Biology.
• Central Hall, the hall where examinations and various productions are held.
• Chemistry.
• Computer Science.
• Environmental Studies.
• Fairfax House, extra student accommodation.
• Heslington Hall.
• King's Manor, a separate University building in York city centre that houses Archaeology and parts of History.
• Library, which consists of the J.B. Morrell, Raymond Burton and Borthwick libraries.
• Music.
• Physics and Electronics.
• Psychology.
• Sports Centre.

Departments of the University are generally based in one of these zones. For example, the Mathematics department is housed in Goodricke College, the Politics department in Derwent College and the Economics department in Alcuin College. However, departments with their own zones, such as Biology and Physics, are not attached to a particular college. These large departments will usually lend their lecture theatres to smaller departments.
