European Social and Political Studies: Dual Degree BA

Arrival at UCL in Year 3

Before you come to UCL for your third year, you will need to fill out the CAS form which you can find here: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/students/immigration-and-visas/student-visa/confirmation-acceptance-studies 

Once you have filled it out, please send it to the Dual Degree coordinator, who will add their approval and signature. After that, you can submit the form through AskUCL. Please note that you will be considered a 'continuing student' when filling out the form.

Dual Degree Coordinator:
Dr Mart Kuldkepp - m.kuldkepp@ucl.ac.uk (until 31st August 2021)
Prof. Kristin Bakke - kmbakke@ucl.ac.uk (from 1st September 2021)

Application for UCL Accommodation

Dual Degree students are guaranteed a place in UCL accommodation in their third year. Second year students should apply to UCL Student Accommodation for accommodation in their third year by 31st May of their second year. The accommodation portal normally opens in early February so applications can be submitted anytime from February until 31st May. The application needs to be made as a "first year" rather than as a "third year" student.

A reminder email to complete the application process will be sent from EISPS to all second year students at the end of January. EISPS will supply the Accommodation Office with a list of second year students at the end of May so that applications for accommodation from this cohort are dealt with in the same way as those of incoming first year students.

Which libraries can I use?

UCL Library

All registered students are entitled to use all parts the UCL library.

Please remember to bring your College Identity Card. The arrangement and lay-out of the Library are described in the Library Guide which is available from all Library issue desks.

University Library

The University Library is a major academic library in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences (entrance on the fourth floor of the Senate House, Malet Street, WC1E 7HU). A ticket may be obtained upon showing a UCL ID card.

UCL Library, the University Library and other London libraries are computer-linked. It is therefore possible to save several journeys by logging in to the main library to see if a book is available elsewhere.

EISPS Library

EISPS has a small library (Room 2.4, second floor, 33-35 Torrington Place) consisting of core texts used heavily on EISPS modules as well as dissertations of former EISPS students that can be helpful in conceiving and structuring your own research. Students are encouraged to consult this collection during EISPS office hours. Items can be loaned for two-week periods, with renewals possible.

What is the EISPS Society?

The European and International Social and Political Studies (EISPS) Society was established in the spring of 2022 to seize the opportunities provided by the easing of the pandemic to forge meaningful inter-disciplinary and inter-community connections at UCL. With members of the EISPS Department studying 10 languages and specializing in 7 majors ranging from law to quantitative social sciences, EISPS has been at the forefront of interdisciplinary at UCL. EISPS, too, is an internationally diverse space, with members hailing from 51 countries worldwide.
