Building on and supporting MadeAtUni

MadeAtUCL builds on and supports the UK-wide MadeAtUni campaign by Universities UK (UUK).

UK universities are at the forefront of some of the most exciting discoveries and pioneering changes of the last century but many people think that all they do is teach. That's why universities across the UK joined forces through the MadeAtUni campaign, to bring to life the impact of universities on people, lives and communities.

MadeAtUni showcases UCL's breakthrough research on treatments for leukaemia and aggressive cancers. For more info, read UCL's news story.

Now underway - new UCL East campus

UCL East is our pioneering new campus underway at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. In the largest single expansion since UCL was founded nearly 200 years ago, UCL East will join our Bloomsbury campus in discovering, co-creating and sharing new knowledge for the benefit of all.

UCL East will be home to new degree programmes, research, innovation and technologies from across eight faculties – uniting academic activities across Experiments, Arts, Society & Technology (EAST). Through 12 academic entities across two buildings, we will continue to break down traditional barriers between teaching, research and public engagement.

Through our new campus, UCL is proud to be part of East Bank, a new destination for London with world-class culture and education at its heart, together with the BBC, Sadler’s Wells, London College of Fashion and the V&A in partnership with the Smithsonian Institution.
