About the Speaker
Professor Georgina Brewis
Professor of Social History at IOE, UCL's Faculty of Education and Society at UCL
I am a social historian of higher education, voluntary action and humanitarianism in Britain and the wider world in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. My current research and teaching interests centre on the history of student life and student culture.
I am Director of Generation UCL: 200 Years of Student Life in London, a research and engagement project in the run up to UCL's bicentenary in 2026 that builds on my earlier revision of UCL's official history, The World of UCL (UCL Press, 2018).
I teach history modules on the Education Studies BA (from 2024 Education, Society and Culture BA), History BA and Public History MA.
