Supervisors
View a list of potential supervisors.
There are three main ways to identify an appropriate supervisor to contact:
1. Browse the list of available supervisors provided below.
2. Look directly on UCL's Institutional Research Information System (IRIS) where you can search for relevant academic units and potential supervisors by keyword. Not all academics are listed in IRIS but it is a good place to start.
3. Search our online research repository (UCL Discovery) where all UCL's research papers are published, subject to approvals. If you identify a research paper that particularly interests you it is likely that one of the authors would be a suitable research supervisor.
