Study

Our BSc programme is research-focused and provides an in‑depth understanding of the role of the immune system, infectious agents and cellular processes in the pathogenesis of diseases.

We seek excellent students who wish to study the mechanisms of infectious and immunological diseases and engage with current issues faced in this area at the leading edge of medicine.

Our iBSc Mathematics, Computers and Medicine capitalises on the wealth of interdisciplinary research at UCL.
