REF 2021

Departments across the Faculty of Mathematical & Physical Sciences have improved their rankings in the REF 2021. Overall, UCL has come second in the UK for research power - for this, 93 per cent of our research was graded 4* ‘world leading’ and 3* ‘internationally excellent’.

Professor Ivan Parkin, Dean of the Faculty of Mathematical & Physical Sciences said: The REF 2021 submission includes only a small sample of the dynamic and ground-breaking research undertaken by departments across the faculty, please see the faculty research pages for information on other research successes. Find out more about this on the faculty and department research pages.
