We welcome collaboration with students, researchers , academics and professional services across UCL and with external partners, including with other higher education institutions (both local and international), third sector organisations, industry and philanthropists. We aim to facilitate dialogue across silos, to foster a culture of shared problem-solving which brings together the wealth of knowledge and expertise from academia, policy and the wider world.
There are a range of ways that you can be part of the UCL Grand Challenges:

We can introduce you to other researchers across UCL who you could work with. Through groups on the Institutional Research Information System (IRIS) and through UCL Research Domains, you can signal your research interests and meet like-minded academics.
We run regular events and other opportunities to meet other researchers; find out more about collaborative working at UCL.
