UCL Global Business School for Health students may have the opportunity to study at two of UCL's main campuses - UCL's main campus and UCL East. In this blog post, we'll explore the features and facilities of UCL's main campus and UCL East and hear from some students about their campus preferences.
First, UCL's main campus is in the heart of London, in the Bloomsbury district. The campus has a mix of modern and historical buildings, including the iconic Wilkins Building, which houses the UCL library. The campus is surrounded by some of London's best museums and cultural attractions, making it a vibrant and exciting place to study. The campus is also home to a wide range of cafes, bars, and restaurants, providing plenty of options for students looking to grab a quick bite to eat or relax with friends after class. For those looking for a true university experience, UCL's main campus is a perfect choice.
Next, we have UCL East, a brand-new campus in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, East London. The campus boasts modern and sustainable buildings designed to be accessible to all students. One of the standout features of UCL East is its stunning views, with the campus offering a unique perspective on the surrounding area, including the London Stadium. The campus is also close to a cycle path and bridge, making it easy for students to get around and explore the local area.
