People at the University of Sussex will join hundreds of other institutions nationwide in this walkout, which is set to take place at 11.30am on Wednesday, February 7 on the Falmer campus.
Students will then protest outside the L3 Harris factory in Home Farm Business Park, in Moulsecoomb, at 12.30pm.
The factory has been a key site for protests due to its manufacturing of bomb racks used in fighter jets by the Israeli military.
This is part of the “Workplace Day of Action” declared by the Stop the War Coalition and the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament groups.
