Student Welfare and Support
UCL's welfare network
UCL's welfare network is available to all its students
Advice and Support
We recognise that making the transition to university life from school or work is not always easy. The School promotes a community culture and does its best to ensure that all students and staff have someone to turn to when they need help and advice. As part of the School’s Pastoral Care Scheme all students are assigned to a personal tutor. In addition, the School has an MPharm Student Support Manager, Mrs Nadia Bukhari, who provides support and guidance to undergraduate students. In addition, postgraduate taught students can seek support from the Postgraduate Programmes Manager, Dr Rosemary Smyth.
London Nightline
London Nightline is a confidential listening, support and practical information service for students in London. It is open from 6pm to 8am every night during term-time. The service is confidential and free to UCL students.
Equal Opportunities
The School of Pharmacy operates an equal opportunities policy in the admission of students. If other criteria are met, no regard is taken (except where legally required) of an applicant’s race, national origin, sex, age, marital status, number of children, disability, beliefs, or lawful preferences privately held on any matter, including religion, politics and sex. The School does not tolerate discriminatory behaviour or practices. All students are required to abide by the School's Single Equality Scheme.
Religious and Cultural Considerations
The UCL Religion and Belief Equality policy for students can be found here. The UCL School of Pharmacy is a multi-cultural institution which gives consideration to students’ individual needs and preferences. However, it is a secular institution where health, safety and security requirements, as well as the needs and aspirations of the academic community as a whole, are paramount. The School's Policy on Religious and Cultural considerations can be found here.
