We are London's Global University
UCL is London’s Global University: 55% of our students are international, representing more than 150 different countries. In the current academic year, there are over 300 students from Thailand enrolled on full degree programmes.
A world class education
We are a world-leading, research-intensive university, currently ranked 9th in the World, in the QS World University Rankings 2025. UCL is University of the Year 2024 (The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2024) and was rated 2nd in the UK for research power in the Research Excellence Framework 2021. Our students are encouraged to realise their potential and learn from world leading academics in an intellectually challenging and inclusive environment.
Find the programme for you
Choose from more than 400 specialist undergraduate courses, and 650 postgraduate courses, from Anthropology to Neuroscience. From day one we will help you focus on your chosen subject area, while supporting you to develop as an independent learner.
The interdisciplinary nature of our programmes means that you will receive a UCL education that extends beyond the boundaries of your subject area. You’ll be taught not what to think but rather how to think, and we will teach you within the context of what is happening in the real world and how to tackle real world problems, from climate change to social mobility.
