UCL – a history of achievement

...which helps us to attract the best and brightest staff and students...

1826 UCL is founded – the first university in England to admit students regardless of their race, class or religion. By 1828 it has established England’s first academic departments in Chemistry, English, German and Italian – with Civil Engineering to follow in 1841.

2nd highest number of professors in any UK university.

1863

705 Professors

Five students from Japan (the ‘Choshu Five’) risk their lives in order to enrol at UCL; they went on to bring Japan out of its political and cultural isolation to become one of the foremost technological powers of the world.

the UK average is 105.

1878

6th highest number of citations per academic staff number (source: QS).

UCL becomes the first university in England to admit women on equal terms with men.

1904 Professor Sir William Ramsay is awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his discovery of the elements helium, argon, neon, krypton and xenon.

// Y ou’ll study with world-leading experts, and benefit from a programme of distinguished visitors and guest speakers. // You’ll benefit from outstanding individual attention for your studies.

1936 The Royal Society elects Kathleen Lonsdale (UCL Crystallography 1936) as its first ever woman member. In 1949 she becomes UCL’s first female professor.

// O ur wide-ranging expertise across all fields of study provides opportunities for groundbreaking interdisciplinary investigation.

1973 UCL makes the first network connection to the USA – a precursor of the modern internet. Another internet first happens in 2002 when UCL computer scientists make a groundbreaking transatlantic ‘virtual handshake’ with their counterparts at MIT.

2006 UCL establishes a Vice-Provost (Enterprise) to promote collaboration with industry partners and entrepreneurial activity within the university.

2010

...so people want to work with us...

UCL opens its first overseas campus; based in Adelaide, Australia, UCL Australia’s focus is on the energy and resources of the region. The Yale UCL Collaborative is also launched.

// Our exceptional links and networks give you the opportunity to make contacts and gain valuable experience, as well as the chance to work on meaningful projects that have a positive impact on society.

2011 UCL’s campus in Doha, UCL Qatar, is launched, with a focus on the cultural heritage and conservation of the region.

2013 UCL’s ongoing links with industry include:

Yale, Cisco, the BBC, the EU, CERN, NASA, the UK Parliament, the UN, NYU Wagner, the British Museum, Microsoft, Intel

UCL continues to expand, with the opening of the Institute of Sport, Exercise & Health and the Department of Science, Technology, Engineering & Public Policy (STEaPP). UCL and NYU Wagner announce a pioneering joint Global Executive MPA.

2014 The Sainsbury Wellcome Centre for Neural Circuits and Behaviour hosted at UCL is due to open.

2015 The Francis Crick Institute is due to open – a £650 million medical research centre, created through a partnership between UCL, the Medical Research Council, Cancer Research UK, the Wellcome Trust, Imperial College London and King’s College London.

THE UCL ADVANTAGE /

UCL’s global reach /

A global university, tackling global problems – UCL works throughout the world with partners in education, business, healthcare, development, philanthropy and government to find solutions to some of humankind’s most pressing issues, and to undertake groundbreaking research across the academic spectrum.

USA The Yale UCL collaborative is a multi-disciplinary, transatlantic research, education and clinical collaboration between Yale University and UCL. Originally set up to share knowledge in the field of cardiovascular medicine, the initiative has subsequently expanded to other biomedical fields and other disciplines, including engineering, history, philosophy and law.

Colombia Archaeologists from UCL’s Wolfson Archaeological Science Laboratories have collaborated with the Museo del Oro (Gold Museum) in Bogotá on an exhibition of gold work of the pre-Columbian Muisca peoples. The exhibition uses the latest archaeometallurgical data to allow for the first time the identification of individual artisans with individual styles.

Peru UCL Engineers are working with the Peruvian, German and UK governments to develop and implement low carbon transport policies, and are working on a demonstration project in Lima which will show how such policies can improve the quality of life for the whole population.

North and South Poles Researchers from UCL Earth Sciences are working to interpret the data from the European Space Agency’s CryoSat mission, designed to measure the changing thickness of land and sea ice over the Earth’s polar regions and determine how these regions are affected by climate change.

GRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2014/15 ENTRY /

China

Switzerland Scientists at CERN, including members of UCL’s High Energy Physics Group, announced in 2013 that they had found the elusive Higgs Boson. The existence of this subatomic particle, crucial to the formation of the universe, had previously only been theorised.

Engineers from UCL are involved in the Chinese Low Carbon Cities Development project in Nanyang, China, where they aim to develop a new fuel from rice husks, new energy storage methods and new kinds of transport which optimise clean energy.

Japan Lebanon

UCL

The Nutrition in Emergencies Regional Training Initiative (NIERTI) is coordinated by the UCL Institute for Global Health and is a collaboration between academic institutions in Uganda, Thailand and Lebanon. The initiative provides high-quality training in emergency nutrition in the regions most affected by humanitarian disasters.

Researchers from UCL EPICentre (Earthquake and People Interaction Centre) are working in Japan and other tsunami- and earthquakeprone areas, investigating the effects of tsunami on coastal infrastructure, developing methods of predicting building and infrastructure damage in earthquakes, and using new technologies for disaster relief and mitigation purposes.

UCL Qatar Nepal Africa Research carried out by UCL Geography and the British Geological Survey has, for the first time, mapped and quantified the groundwater resources underlying the African continent, and discovered that groundwater in Africa can in many places provide a longterm climate-resilient supply of water.

Ghana

Scientists from UCL’s Centre for Altitude, Space and Extreme Environment Medicine (CASE) are leading research into how the human body copes with the low oxygen levels experienced at extreme altitude. The results will help scientists to develop treatments that will benefit critically ill patients in intensive care.

UCL Australia Congo UCL’s interdisciplinary Extreme Citizen Science (ExCiteS) research group works with indigenous peoples, giving them innovative tools to map areas of importance to them and log any incursions into those areas. This helps to ensure that during development and policy decisions their voices will be heard.

The paRTner programme is an initiative started in 2011 by UCL Medical Physics & Bioengineering, in collaboration with the Radiotherapy Departments of UCLH and the Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust. It works to provide practical training and support for radiotherapy professionals in Ghana and neighbouring countries in West Africa.

UCL’S GLOBAL REACH /

A flavour of UCL’s research /

At the very heart of UCL’s mission is our research. We aspire to deliver a culture of wisdom and provide a supportive environment where academic insight can thrive, deepening knowledge and developing solutions to problems worldwide. We encourage academics to work across traditional subject boundaries and have established numerous centres to facilitate cross-disciplinary interaction.

Pages from the past Staff from the UCL Centre for Digital Humanities recently used specially designed software (by UCL Computer Science) to digitise the Great Parchment Book, a crucial historical text documenting the City of London’s role in 17th-century Ulster that was unreadable for over 200 years due to fire damage. Their novel approach could now help other researchers to salvage damaged or distorted historical documents.

Chasing down a cure for cancer

Written in stone A UCL-led team of archaeologists have analysed the ancient remains of 63 burials around Stonehenge and discovered that the original monument – a circular enclosure built half a century before the Stonehenge we know today – was a graveyard for a community of elite families. An analysis of animal remains shows that, from around 2500 BC, it was the site of vast midwinter feasts attended by people from all over ancient Britain – a fascinating snapshot of a prehistoric pan-British communal culture, which was shortly to die out with the advent of the Beaker people.

GRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2014/15 ENTRY /

UCL scientists in the Department of Cell & Developmental Biology have described, for the first time, a ‘chase and run’ mechanism that cells use to group together and move about the body, opening up the possibility of new cancer treatments which target the interaction between healthy cells and cancer cells in order to halt metastasis and the formation of secondary tumours.

A rocky beginning for life on Earth Scientists from UCL and the University of Düsseldorf have put forward a major hypothesis to explain the origin of life, tracing a coherent pathway from rocks, water and carbon dioxide to the bioenergetic properties that are shared by all cells today. The walls of deep-sea hydrothermal vents contain vast networks of tiny, thin-walled ‘pores’ which could have acted as proto-cells – producing a proton gradient over their thin mineral ‘walls’ to store energy in the exactly same way that living cells do to this day, and also enabling the concentration of simple organic molecules to provide the building-blocks for more complex proteins and nucleic acids.

Doctors on call A major new Interdisciplinary Research Collaboration (IRC), led by UCL and funded by the EPSRC, is to develop mobile health technologies that will allow doctors to diagnose and track diseases much earlier than ever before. The IRC will pioneer low-cost, easy-to-use diagnostic tests, based on advances in nanotechnology, that can be connected to mobile phones and used in GP surgeries, pharmacies, elderly care homes, and at home. The tests aim to identify diseases and give results within minutes from just a pin-prick of blood or a simple swab. The rapid transmission of results into secure healthcare systems will alert doctors to potentially serious outbreaks with geographically linked information.

A FLAVOUR OF UCL’S RESEARCH /

A philosopher for the 21st century The aim of the Bentham Project is to produce a new scholarly edition of the works and correspondence of Jeremy Bentham (1748–1832), the influential jurist, philosopher and social scientist whose utilitarian philosophy was the inspiration behind the foundation of UCL. In 2010, the Bentham Project launched Transcribe Bentham, a participatory initiative whereby volunteers can transcribe previously unstudied and unpublished manuscripts from the Bentham archive (the manuscript shown is from 1777 and details Bentham’s experiments with earwigs, which may have contributed to his later thinking about the relationships between humans and animals). To date, nearly 6,000 manuscripts have been transcribed and are fully accessible online in UCL Library’s Digital Collections.

A new kind of talking cure A UCL meta-analysis of seven trials in Bangladesh, India, Malawi and Nepal, looking at 119,428 births overall, found that women’s groups can dramatically reduce maternal and newborn deaths in the poorest communities. In all seven trials, a local woman helped to facilitate groups that met to identify and address common health problems during pregnancy and during and after birth. The results were astonishing: in areas where more than a third of women took part in the groups, maternal deaths fell by 55%, and newborn deaths by 33%. The study estimates that this cost-effective, sustainable solution could prevent an estimated 283,000 newborn deaths and 41,100 maternal deaths annually around the globe.

First Tweeting – now Chirping! A new technology enabling the sharing of data through audio has been developed by researchers at Animal Systems, a UCL Computer Science spin-out company. Chirp technology uses short snippets of ‘digital birdsong’ as a means to transfer data between mobile devices, and has already been successfully marketed as an iPhone app allowing users to send links and photos to each other. Animal Systems are currently planning to license the technology platform to other software and hardware developers with the assistance of UCL Business, UCL’s technology transfer company, so it can be developed for other devices, and potentially used for applications such as discount vouchers or electronic payments.

UCL spin-out company goes for gold

The work of UCL spin-out company Space Syntax was seen by millions across the world in July 2012, as it created the giant map of London’s street network that featured prominently in the Opening Ceremony for the 2012 London Olympic Games. The map is based on a mathematical analysis of street networks developed at the UCL Bartlett School of Graduate Studies, and was used to develop the master plan for the Olympic site at Stratford in East London.

The lighter way to beat infection Researchers at the UCL Eastman Dental Institute have pioneered a revolutionary antimicrobial therapy for gum disease and other oral infections, using ‘photodisinfection’. This therapy is gaining interest as an alternative to antibiotics as it does not promote antibiotic resistance. UCL Business has agreed an exclusive licence for the use of this research with Periowave Dental Technologies Inc, allowing them to develop a pain-free, non-surgical and non-antibiotic treatment for infections of the mouth.

Case study: Beba Mtoto! PhD student and mother-of-two Raphaela Heussen (UCL CoMPLEX) is passionately interested in the traditional parenting technique of babywearing, where a parent carries a child using a sling or harness strapped to the body. Inspired by the technique, which is widely used in Africa, Asia and South America, Raphaela developed an innovative baby carrier which is ergonomically correct for both the wearer and the baby and allows the wearer to keep his or her hands free while providing the closeness and emotional benefits to the child that traditional babywearing can provide. Her company, Beba Mtoto!, was the winner of a UCL Bright Ideas Award in 2013, and Raphaela is currently working on producing a next-generation carrier for older children and toddlers.

Case study: Old Bond PhD student Art Stavenka (UCL School of Slavonic and East European Studies) and his business partner Kiryl Chykeyuk, started their outdoor advertising company with the help of a Bright Ideas Award from UCL Advances. The technology behind the Old Bond London is simple but effective: four strips of LED lights, attached to bicycle wheels, produce startling illuminated animations ideally suited to advertising on city streets.

ARTS & HUMANITIES /

UCL Arts & Humanities is a renowned centre of excellence where research of world-leading quality feeds directly into programmes of study in areas such as English, Philosophy, Classics, Hebrew and Jewish Studies, Information Studies and over 20 modern European languages. Fine Art is also offered at the UCL Slade School of Fine Art.

Professor Jonathan Wolff Professor of Philosophy

I work in moral and political philosophy. All of my most recent work has been concerned, one way or another, with the connection between philosophy and the real world. For example, my book Disadvantage, written with Avner de-Shalit, and published in 2007, is concerned with the analysis and measurement of disadvantage, but also explores the type of social policy that might help overcome some of the worst cases. Another stream of work is based on my experience on a number of public policy committees, looking at issues such as gambling law and the regulation of drugs. This led to my book Ethics and Public Policy: A Philosophical Inquiry, in 2011. I have also become very interested in ethics and health, and I have produced a number of papers and a short book on the human right to health. I also have an interest in the history of political philosophy, and have worked on Hobbes, Mill and Marx.

MAIN IMAGE: Professor John Mullan, Professor of English Literature. He has published widely on 18th-century literature, and is also a broadcaster and journalist who writes on contemporary fiction for publications such as The Guardian.

Research groups and strengths The faculty’s expertise covers all periods of English, American and European language, literature and culture, and we take a crossdisciplinary approach to our teaching and research. As well as our constituent departments, some of our key centres and research groups include the Centres for Archives & Records Management Research, Digital Humanities, Early Modern Exchanges, Editing Lives & Letters, Humanities Interdisciplinary Research Projects, Multidisciplinary Intercultural Inquiry, Philosophy, Justice & Health, and Publishing, as well as the Institute of Jewish Studies, Medieval & Renaissance Studies and the Survey of English Usage.

A list of taught programmes can be found on pages 38–39 The London advantage We aim to enable students to follow their own academic interests to develop both intellectually and personally, and in order to do this we have developed strong links with a range of local institutions. Based in the heart of Bloomsbury, our departments have agreements with a multitude of institutions including Birkbeck College, the British Film Institute, the British Library, the British Museum, the Imperial War Museum, the Institute of Philosophy, the National Gallery, the School of Oriental and African Studies, Tate, publishers such as I.B. Tauris and a number of embassies.

Global networks The Yale UCL Collaborative provides our PhD students with the opportunity to study at Yale for a defined period of research. We also have a wide range of networks around the world from research collaborations with leading universities such as Peking University, to agreements with business and industry including internship opportunities organised by some of our departments. The global scope of our networks encompasses Europe, Africa and the Middle East, and spans the Americas to China and other parts of Asia.

Key features and facilities Our students have access to excellent libraries (including the Special Collections, a collection of rare manuscripts and archives including the George Orwell Archive, and excellent holdings in classics, Egyptology and Jewish Studies) and state-of the-art language learning facilities as well as our vast array of networks across London, the UK and overseas. We are committed to areas of applied and translational research which have strong societal impact – for example, an iPhone app developed by the Survey of English Usage and supported through development by UCL Business is now serving as the springboard to a project that will support the development of a small number of apps translating faculty research. We are also committed to cross-disciplinary research; The Centre for Digital Humanities, for example, draws together teaching from a wide range of disciplines to investigate the application of computational technologies to the arts, humanities and cultural heritage, and we run a joint inaugural lecture series with the Faculty of Social & Historical Sciences. The Slade School of Fine Art has a world-leading reputation; all studio staff are practicing artists with significant exhibition profiles, and studio space and facilities have been expanded and enhanced in recent years and cover painting, sculpture and fine art media. Many of our academic staff write for national publications such as The Guardian, or produce documentaries or programmes with the BBC based on their research.

Scholarships and funding Faculty-wide funding is offered in the form of Wolfson Scholarships, funding provided by the Faculty Institute of Graduate Studies (FIGS) and funding available through the UCL Graduate School. In addition, students may apply for scholarships funded through the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC). Some departments also offer their own subject-specific scholarships and bursaries, so please check departmental websites for further information.

Employability and skills Not only do our students have access to high-quality teaching across their own subject area and related areas, but they also have the chance to enhance and develop transferable skills – concrete skills that future recruiters look for in their candidates. These skills vary depending on the area you focus on, however, some key ones are: commercial awareness; communication; team work; problem solving; ability to work under pressure and leadership. Our programmes will give you a good base and experience to talk to employers across multiple sectors and your career options are limitless.

The Faculty of Brain Sciences brings together a wealth of scientific and clinical expertise and provides recognised world-class education in both taught and research programmes at graduate level.

Professor Rosemary Varley Professor in Acquired Language Disorders

My research addresses language and communication, and in particular developing neurobiologically plausible models of language and language-linked cognition. I am interested in pre-clinical work in this field, but also in applications to clinical management of poststroke communication disorders. I collaborate with psychologists, linguists and computer scientists, together with clinical neurologists and speech and language therapists. One area of applied interest is in collaborating with computer scientists to design software that allows people with post-stroke communication impairments such as aphasia and apraxia to self-administer intensive rehabilitation regimes. Another is examining the role of language in thinking and reasoning. We do this by exploring the capacities of people with severe aphasia to complete reasoning tasks which some scientists claim require language.

LAWS /

For almost 200 years, UCL Laws has been one of the leading centres of legal education in the world, and remains committed to rigorous, multi-disciplinary and innovative study of the law in all its dimensions. Our established reputation for cutting-edge legal research places us at the heart of policy, practice and impact.

Professor Cheryl Thomas Professor of Judicial Studies

The focus of my research is understanding how judicial decisions are really made â&#x20AC;&#x201C; what influences the decisions of juries and judges. Only by understanding how these decisions are actually made can we identify whether any bias may exist and how the judicial system can best ensure fairness for all parties. I use an approach that combines case simulation with real judges and juries at courts, large-scale analysis of actual case decisions and post-decision interviews. The UCL Jury Project and Tribunals Project are truly interdisciplinary; combining law, political science, psychology, statistical analysis and computer science as well as film and other audio-visual technology. I enjoy the challenge of trying to establish a new academic discipline in the UK (Judicial Studies). This requires working closely not just with researchers in other disciplines, but also with judges, government and the general public (when I work with juries at court). It also means I have an opportunity to bring students into direct contact with judges, either through the judgesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; involvement in my course or through our UCL Judicial Placement Scheme.

Cherry Newsam Earth Sciences PhD

For my PhD I study calcareous nannoplankton, microscopic planktonic algae which live in the surface waters of the ocean. These phytoplankton play an important role in the marine ecosystem and the global carbon cycle. Today they are globally widespread but they also have an abundant and continuous fossil record as they produce calcareous cell coverings, which after death accumulate on the seafloor and are preserved in ocean sediments. I am researching how these algae evolved across a period from 50 to 30 million years ago, known as the greenhouse to icehouse transition â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a time of major climatic reorganisation, with global cooling and the first continental ice sheets appearing on Antarctica. The knowledge I gain about the diversity and evolution of the calcareous nannoplankton will aid our understanding of the palaeoclimatic and palaeoceanographic conditions across this period, and enable us to determine whether there was a relationship between climatic change and the calcareous nannoplankton evolution.

Research groups and strengths The six divisions that make up the faculty (Cancer Institute, Eastman Dental Institute, Division of Infection & Immunity, Medical School, Division of Medicine, Division of Surgery & Interventional Science) each have a programme of innovative research reflecting our expertise in clinical and translational science. Recent examples of our work include: the use of stem cells and a novel nanocomposite polymer to create an artificial trachea; the use of deep and whole-genome sequencing of the MERS coronavirus to inform the control of this novel pathogen; and initiation of the TRACERx study, which is a landmark study to unlock the secrets of lung cancer, tracking in real time how lung tumours develop and evolve as patients receive treatment. The science behind innovations such as these underpins our graduate training programmes, aimed at preparing the leaders in clinical research of the future.

A list of taught programmes can be found on page 44 The London advantage Novel therapeutic approaches are poised to have a significant impact on the treatment of diabetes, cancer, liver disease and many other conditions. London may be regarded as a microcosm of the world and as such provides a unique environment in which to study and research these important medical challenges. Our partnerships with the NHS and Public Health England (PHE) provide an unrivalled resource in terms of patient cohorts and specialist facilities. An example is the new Institute of Immunity and Transplantation at the Royal Free Hospital. Other developments which the faculty are involved with are Stevenage Bioscience Catalyst (a partnership between GSK, UCL and the University of Cambridge) which will provide a catalyst and supportive environment for pioneering enterprise activities, and the Francis Crick Institute (due to open in 2015), a world-leading centre of biomedical research and innovation.

Global networks Our researchers lead projects and collaborations across the world. As well as the Yale UCL Collaborative, there is an extensive portfolio of research collaborations funded by the US National Institute of Health (NIH) and the EU. We have a global perspective with research programmes in Africa, South-East and South Asia. UCL Medical School has established a range of international partnerships to deliver expertise in the development of medical education in different countries and cultures.

Key features and facilities Access to modern facilities is a fundamental requirement for graduate students in order to pursue their studies effectively. We have the tools to enable you to follow your ideas, and these are backed up with the technical expertise to ensure you get the most out of your time with us. Although each of our divisions has the resources required for its discipline, our students also have access to the huge resource of expertise and equipment available across UCL as a whole. Although equipment is important, an environment that enables you to learn and explore is what will allow you to develop as a scientist and we provide that environment. Each of our divisions runs an active programme of research seminars, talks and lectures to give you access to the leaders in your field, and also bring you into regular contact with other students for support and guidance.

Scholarships and funding The faculty has a number of PhD programmes that attract external funding (e.g. MRC-funded Bench to Bedside studentships, which combine cutting-edge research training with an opportunity to experience the clinical context of the research, and ATTRACT studentships in the area of adoptive cell therapy). Similarly, bursaries are available for some taught programmes. Information about all these funding opportunities can be found on our various divisional websites.

Employability and skills Our programmes are designed to provide you with the knowledge and experience gained from a research-intensive university. This will prepare you for a career where an understanding of research methodology will give you an advantage in the future. Naturally, a first destination for our graduates is often an academic or NHS research role, but pharmaceutical companies, clinical trials companies and financial organisations are also common employers. Many of our graduates are on career tracks within the NHS and the programmes we offer reflect this, providing an opportunity to acquire key skills as well as disciplineand research-specific knowledge. Taught programmes are often mapped directly to the training needs of specific professional groups. Whether you are on a career track or still considering your options, we will provide career advice to help you on your way forward.

POPULATION HEALTH SCIENCES /

We seek to deliver outstanding research and teaching for improved human health. The unifying concept that informs our scholarship and educational activity is the life-course; our research elucidates the biological, behavioural and psychosocial processes operating across an individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life, and across generations, that affect the development and progression of disease.

Professor Neil Marlow Professor of Neonatal Medicine

My focus is on brain and neurocognitive development following perinatal events, specifically very preterm birth and birth asphyxia. To study this effectively requires close collaboration between the clinical teams at University College London Hospitals (UCLH) and a range of other academic disciplines â&#x20AC;&#x201C; medical imaging, magnetic resonance, physics, computational science, developmental psychology, psychiatry, neurophysiology and several others. We study smaller focused cohorts born at UCLH, using MRI and other related techniques to study brain development and injury and the effect on the developing brain. We then look at development of key executive functions across infancy and outcomes at school age. In addition we host major cohort studies (such as EPICure) in longitudinal research out into adult life. All of these studies help bring an understanding of the influences of clinical care on later development and they are identifying important areas where we might act to prevent later impairment.

www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate/pop-health

Research groups and strengths Our institutes and divisions together encompass conception, birth, childhood, adolescence, adulthood, older age and death. The Institutes for Women’s Health, of Child Health, Cardiovascular Science, and Epidemiology & Health Care comprehensively address these phases and periods at an individual and population level. The Institutes of Clinical Trials & Methodology and of Global Health focus on how potential health gains can be realised nationally and internationally. The range of disciplines from which staff are drawn (clinical scientists, epidemiologists, biostatisticians, health social scientists, biologists, geneticists, and allied health professionals), our collaborative approach (working with engineers, lawyers, biotechnologists and economists, among others) and the initiatives in which we are involved all ensure that we provide a supportive, challenging and vibrant institution in which to study.

A list of taught programmes can be found on page 45 The London advantage Our central London location delivers huge competitive advantage and academic benefit. Our links to and involvement with clinical partners (UCL Partners, Biomedical Research Centres) and leading research and policy-making institutions (MRC, Wellcome Trust, ESRC, National Institute for Health Research, Public Health England, NICE, the Department of Health) are reflected in our involvement in and leadership of collaborative research initiatives. Our unparalleled access to high-quality research facilities and academic expertise informs the structure and content of the teaching programmes we offer. We constitute the largest single concentration of population health scientists in a UK medical school. Whilst our academic links provide opportunity, the more immediate impact for every student is the very high calibre and capabilities of the staff we recruit and retain as a result of being a research-led teaching institution. Their involvement in cutting-edge research delivers a unique teaching environment.

and new student hubs provide core facilities, and students normally have access to local common rooms. The faculty is enhancing e-learning provision and developing student-focused initiatives – for example, a Postgraduate Research Mentoring Scheme and faculty induction day for MSc and MRes students – to help provide a continuum of support, from prospective student through to successful graduate.

Scholarships and funding Studentships are available annually for specific research areas and programmes identified by funders (e.g. ESRC, MRC, British Heart Foundation), secured as part of individual projects and research proposals (e.g. National Institute for Health Research, Cancer Research UK) and/or available in annual competition to support the best proposals submitted in a given field (Child Health Research Appeal Trust). Scholarships are also secured for taught programmes where funders believe they address specific capacity and training requirements. The nature of the funding, with a relatively fast changing landscape of funding opportunities, determines that all scholarships are held at institute/programme level and that applicants have to contact institutes directly to secure the most up-to-date information.

Employability and skills We offer a unique environment for cross-disciplinary study, as well as the opportunity to engage with peers and staff with professional experience in many different domains of population health, including health service delivery, research, programme management, health policy and advocacy. As a student, you will benefit from world-class education and training, and graduate with the skills and knowledge sought after by industry, government departments and voluntary and public sector organisations worldwide, as well as leading academic institutions. Students are encouraged to undertake internships with relevant organisations where funding permits, and many of our programmes include placements. Institutes within the faculty run alumni and networking events and foster relationships with industry, third sector and governmental organisations, other higher education institutions, partner hospitals and the wider NHS – developing extensive networks that support future success.

Global networks The future health of many communities is intimately bound up with global challenges – climate change, international trade, migration, urbanisation, and population growth. Global challenges require global solutions, so it is unsurprising that we receive research funding not only from the UK, but also from the US National Institute of Health (NIH), and from the EU. UCL’s global health research is increasingly multi-disciplinary, as seen in our Institute for Global Health, and across the faculty, in epidemiology, child health, women’s health and in cardiovascular science. The Institute of Clinical Trials & Methodology has collaborations in more than 80 countries: Population Health at UCL is truly global in its reach and aspiration.

Key features and facilities Many of our teaching and computing facilities have been recently renovated, including the installation of Lecturecast and new audiovisual equipment. Major refurbishments in laboratories within the Institutes of Child Health and Cardiovascular Science, and investment in non-invasive imaging, high-speed computing and ‘omics’ analysis capabilities, have increased the opportunities for research projects. In addition, there are opportunities for non-laboratory based research in epidemiology and biostatistics, clinical trials, health informatics, psychology, developmental paediatrics, and various aspects of international child health.

SCHOOL OF

SLAVONIC & EAST EUROPEAN STUDIES /

Founded in 1915, the UCL School of Slavonic & East European Studies (SSEES) is a world-leading centre for the study of Central, Eastern and South-Eastern Europe, Russia and the rest of the Former Soviet Union. Our teaching and research spans four key areas: Economics and Business, History, Languages and Culture, and Politics and Sociology.

Professor Wendy Bracewell Professor of South-East European History

While there has been much academic interest in the ways in which western travellers have constructed a divided world through their writings, they aren’t the only ones to have used travel accounts to this end. I’ve been working on a long-term project looking at several centuries of East European travel writers describing their experiences in Europe – and through that their ideas of European belonging or otherness. That research pulled together an interdisciplinary team to look at the character of such writing and to compare the ways the travellers represented themselves and others. It not only showed what Europe has looked like when viewed from its eastern half, but also helped illuminate the complex genealogy of the concept of ‘Eastern Europe’.

MAIN IMAGE: Dr Christopher Gerry, Senior Lecturer in Health Economics at the UCL School of Slavonic & East European Studies, whose research focuses on health outcomes and reforms, and health economics of ageing and wellbeing in Russia.

www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate/ssees

Research groups and strengths SSEES hosts five interdisciplinary research centres, and leads the inter-university Centre for East European Language Based Area Studies (CEELBAS), as well as the International Master’s in Economy, State, and Society (IMESS), a two-year programme in which students spend a full year at a partner institution in Central or Eastern Europe. We also lead the 21-strong consortium for a major EU-funded project (ANTICORPP, investigating European responses to the challenge of corruption) with partners in Gothenburg, Berlin and Florence, and are active in a variety of different research collaborations with European partners (for example, SSEES provides the academic director for an international Open Society project promoting health research and studies in the Former Soviet Union).

A list of taught programmes can be found on page 45 The London advantage We have forged close relationships with a range of institutions in London, including Chatham House, the British Chamber of Commerce, the EBRD (European Bank for Reconstruction and Development), the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the British Library, Roubini Global Economics, Transparency International and NGOs including Health Prom and the BEARR Trust – all of which have offered SSEES students and scholars internships or other opportunities for collaboration, and some of which are Associate Partners within the IMESS programme. With our ideal central London location, we have long cultivated successful connections with the London embassies of our region, which regularly co-sponsor events involving leading international figures such as Martti Ahtisaari (2008), Madeleine Albright (2010) and Gordon Bajnai (2012).

Global networks At the heart of SSEES’s international networks is the SSEES-led International Master’s programme (IMESS), developed from longstanding institutional partnerships with universities in the Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Poland, Russia and Serbia. From this, a formal institutional partnership with the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE, Moscow) emerged in 2011, and resulted in a successful application to the ESRC for a PhD partnership programme between HSE and UCL. Successful collaboration and networking often starts through our many bilateral and multilateral exchange arrangements with partner universities and institutions, and with external sponsors (such as the three-month visiting fellowships we offer, co-funded by the governments of Estonia, Hungary, Poland and Lithuania).

Key features and facilities The SSEES library is one of the leading research libraries in the UK for the study of Central and Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union. Comprising around 400,000 volumes of books, pamphlets and periodicals, the library is unique in the UK for the quantity of research material on open access and for the extensive collection of newspapers from the region. Students are also offered all the library resources of UCL, including unparalleled access to electronic journals and databases. Research is supported not only by expert supervisors, but also by a great variety of seminar series, conferences, lectures, and workshops. Visitors to SSEES include Central and East European and Russian politicians, top academics from around the world, and writers and intellectuals from all the geographical areas covered by the school.

Scholarships and funding AHRC and ESRC scholarships for MA, MRes, MPhil and PhD study and a range of IMESS studentships are available. Up to six SSEES studentships are awarded, covering tuition fees at UK/EU level. The SSEES Foundation Scholarship is available to prospective MPhil/ PhD research students, and the Victor and Rita Swoboda Memorial Scholarship supports a PhD in Ukrainian Studies.

Employability and skills Popular destinations of our recent graduates include government services, international agencies and NGOs, consultancies, the media, teaching, law and corporate training schemes. Examples include: Government Policy Advisor, Finance and Investment Analyst, Social Researcher, Business Risk Analyst, Legal Trainee, and Parliamentary Intern, while others have pursued further study and research. Career planning is part of the study experience, with a huge range of opportunities to enhance employability. Campus and faculty careers sessions with relevant employers, networking with former students, sessions on applications and interviews, and access to internship and placement opportunities are all dedicated to ensuring students are at an advantage in the employment market, by understanding what is important to personal career development and how to show added value in the workplace.

SOCIAL & HISTORICAL SCIENCES /

UCL Social & Historical Sciences encompasses an area of knowledge where science meets the humanities. The interests and methods of our eight departments, whose research expertise ranges from Archaeology, Anthropology and Geography through to History, History of Art, Economics and Political Science, offer excellent opportunities for innovative and collaborative research.

Dr John Sabapathy Lecturer in Medieval History

I work on 12th- and 13th-century European history in a wider Eurasian context – looking at what was distinctive, and what was not, about Europe during this first European ‘union’. I’m also just finishing a book on ‘accountability’ in the Middle Ages. I’ve been at UCL for three years now, although I should add to that three extremely happy years as a PhD student. It’s hard to stress just how pleasurable and rewarding are teaching and research at UCL, both because of the quality and diversity of our graduates and also because of the fantastic resources we can share with them, whether those are my colleagues, our library and collections, or those of our many nearby neighbours. I think, though, that it’s the interdisciplinarity of those working in and around my field that makes UCL particularly special – I don’t get to learn just from other historians, but art historians, archaeologists and literary scholars in any number of languages or specialisms.

www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate/social-historical

Research groups and strengths Our various departments play a major role in UCL’s growing network of cross-disciplinary research centres. Major interdisciplinary projects are run by the UCL China Centre for Health & Humanity, the Centre for Transnational History, the Institute of the Americas and the UCL Centre for Medieval & Renaissance Studies. A wide range of other centres also cover areas ranging from digital anthropology to migration, and from specialist areas such as climate change, constitutional change and human rights to museum studies and heritage management.

A list of taught programmes can be found on page 46–47 The London advantage Based in the heart of London, we have strong relationships with a range of industry-specific contacts, businesses, research centres and funding bodies. Special agreements currently exist with the House of Lords, the British Academy, Marie Curie Cancer Care and the Wellcome Trust, along with a number of embassies from Colombia to China and across the Middle East. We are also located close to invaluable resources such as the British Library and British Museum, the Institutes of Historical Research and Classical Studies and the Warburg Institute.

Global networks We offer various opportunities in collaboration with overseas partners. UCL’s School of Public Policy and NYU Wagner have created a unique partnership to offer an innovative one-year Joint Executive Master of Public Administration (EMPA). As part of this partnership, students will spend the first semester at NYU Wagner in New York City and the Spring Term at UCL in London; the summer is then spent in locations across the globe working on a client-based Capstone Project. The Yale UCL Collaborative provides PhD students with the opportunity to study at Yale for a defined period of research. Alongside this we have a wide range of academic ties with overseas institutes including expansion in the Middle East through UCL Qatar, a world-leading department for the study of cultural heritage located in the heart of the Arab world in partnership with the Qatar Foundation and Qatar Museums Authority. UCL Qatar offers graduate degree programmes in Museum Studies, Library and Information Studies, and Archaeology and Conservation, with a significant emphasis on the heritage of the Gulf region and the opportunity to undertake extended placements at museums and heritage sites across the region.

Key features and facilities Our students have access to state-of-the-art computing facilities and a well-equipped Map Room in Geography, on-site collections such as the Ethnography Collection, the Institute of Archaeology Collections and Library, the Petrie Museum of Egyptology and the UCL Art Museum, as well as UCL Library Special Collections. Many departments run specialist seminars, often with high-profile visiting speakers, and we run a joint inaugural lecture series with the Faculty of Arts & Humanities. We are committed to ensuring we are at the forefront of teaching and research excellence in the UK and internationally, and our ambitious teaching and research strategies are focused on themes of innovation, interdisciplinarity and impact. The methods of learning and teaching within the faculty are varied and diverse; however, all

graduate programmes require students to have reached a high level of proficiency in their field. The majority of learning hours are spent in independent study outside the classroom, and teaching provides not only instruction and training, but also facilitates, guides, and engages with each student’s own independent work.

Scholarships and funding Faculty-wide funding is offered in the form of Leverhulme Fellowships, Wolfson Scholarships and funding provided by the UCL Graduate School. Some departments also have their own subject-specific scholarships and bursaries available, so please check departmental websites for further information.

How to apply / This is a very brief overview of the application process. For more information please see www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate/apply

RESEARCH PROGRAMMES

Check that you meet the entry requirements for the programme you are interested in. International students will have to check international qualification equivalencies, and English language requirements may also apply.

Investigate research opportunities – these can either be speculative, or defined studentships.

SPECULATIVE Many departments welcome speculative research enquiries. Well-qualified candidates should contact relevant academics directly or, in some cases, submit speculative applications. The process varies by department; if you are unsure contact the department first.

To find potential research supervisors, you can search the UCL Graduate Prospectus to help you find relevant academic units; UCL IRIS to find academics relevant to your research interest; and UCL Discovery, UCL’s online research repository, to find papers and authors relevant to you.

If you identify an academic who is keen to work with you the next stage will be to liaise with them to identify appropriate funding to cover your fees and stipend.

STUDENTSHIPS Studentships are defined research projects packaged with funding. They are predominantly in science, technology, engineering and medical areas, and are advertised throughout the academic year.

As the availability of studentships changes constantly, you should check UCL listings, academic department websites, Doctoral Training Centre websites, and websites such as findaphd.com Studentships funded by the UK Research Councils are usually not available to students from outside the EU. If you are applying for funding from your government check the requirements and deadlines – these can often be earlier than you expect.

Follow the application guidance of the studentship.

TAUGHT PROGRAMMES

Identify a programme you are interested in; these are listed in this Prospectus and online. Check that you meet the entry requirements for this programme. International students will have to check international qualification equivalencies, and English language requirements may also apply.

Check application deadlines.

If you intend to apply for scholarships or other forms of funding you should do this at least 12 months before intending to start your studies. In many cases you will need your offer from UCL before you are able to apply for funding, so make sure you plan your application far enough in advance.

If you have any questions please contact the relevant academic unit using the details given at www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate, or contact UCL Admissions: email admissions@ucl.ac.uk or telephone +44 (0)20 7679 7742 +44 (0)20 7679 7381

Disclaimer Every effort has been made to ensure that the information given in this Prospectus is correct at the time of going to press and UCL will use all reasonable efforts to provide the programmes described herein. However, UCL reserves the right, for any reason, without notice at any time to withdraw or vary any degree programme described in the Prospectus and to alter entry requirements, fees, the facilities and/or services described either before or after students enrol. UCL also reserves the right at any time to withdraw or amend the content of any course forming part of a programme. This may be necessary for a variety of reasons, including to allow programmes to keep abreast of the latest developments or discoveries in a discipline. Admission to UCL for any particular programme is granted to the student on the understanding that the programme is liable to change by any such withdrawal or amendment.

If a programme is withdrawn before enrolment, applicants will be given the opportunity to transfer their applications to an appropriate alternative programme at UCL for which they may be qualified. In the unlikely event that a programme is withdrawn from UCL after enrolment, UCL will inform students at the earliest opportunity and will make every effort to ensure that students can complete the programme and receive the award for which they are enrolled. Alternatively, students may be offered the opportunity to transfer to another programme for which they are appropriately qualified. UCL undertakes all reasonable steps to provide educational services. It does not, however, guarantee the provision of such services. Should industrial action or circumstances beyond the control of UCL interfere with its ability to provide educational services, UCL will undertake reasonable steps to minimise the resultant disruption to those educational services.
