ON CAMPUS 

​​​

 🎯High Dwell: Students spend 45–120 minutes per visit 

​​

  • Our research and campus activity data show that students typically spend 45 to 120 minutes per visit inside Students’ Union spaces.

  • These areas act as daily social and leisure hubs for eating, studying, and meeting friends.

  • The combination of high footfall and long dwell time creates multiple exposure opportunities for on-site digital and poster campaigns.

  • Students visit regularly throughout the week, ensuring consistent reach and strong campaign frequency.

  • This environment delivers natural engagement, as students are relaxed, receptive, and in a trusted campus setting.
