Graduate Open Events: An introduction to Masters study at the Ear Institute

The UCL Ear Institute is the largest and most multidisciplinary centre for research into hearing and deafness in Europe. Our excellence in research was reflected in REF 2021, placing UCL at the top of Clinical Medicine and Psychology, Psychiatry and Neuroscience for research power and intensity.

A key defining feature of the UCL Ear Institute is our emphasis on interaction between the different research groups that occupy the Centre for Auditory Research building and clinicians from the nearby Royal National Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital (formerly the RNENTH, now part of the new Royal National ENT and Eastman Dental Hospitals).

During this virtual information session you'll get to hear from the programme Directorship about our suite of Masters level courses, their structures, modules, career outcomes and life as a student in the department, UCL and London more widely.

We'll also have student ambassadors who are current students on some of the courses mentioned in the session so you'll be able to pitch your questions to them and gain their valuable insights into why the Ear Institute and their courses are the one for you.
