Shape urban futures
Our Global Urbanism MASc is the first urban master’s degree to radically cut across arts, humanities, social sciences and technology studies, so you can specialise in urbanism as a challenge-driven and practice-oriented transdisciplinary field.
As a student you will study in a purpose-designed environment for transdisciplinary urban research at UCL East, in east London – an area that has undergone huge and rapid change since the 1980s and is unrivalled in the opportunity it offers to study the dynamics of urbanisation. You will engage with living laboratories in London or an international partner city on our Global Studio or London Studio pathways, building critical insight into urban challenges, and putting your theory and creativity into practice.
Are you ready to become a future urbanist? Register your interest in studying with us today to receive updates from our faculty, along with invitations to upcoming open days and taster sessions.
Ruth Glass UK Scholarship
UK students applying to the Global Urbanism MASc are eligible to apply for the Ruth Glass Scholarship, covering tuition fees for one year full-time study and a 52-week living stipend.
Ruth Glass (1912-1990) is a key writer and thinker for a wide range of debates and approaches central to Urban Studies. Perhaps best known for coining the term ‘gentrification’ in 1964, her work encompassed important and often foundational contributions to urban sociology, migration studies, community planning, race relations, comparative urbanism and much more.
