Here East

The Bartlett School of Architecture 2016

At 1.2 million square foot in London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Here East is one of London’s most exciting new developments. A home for individuals and companies that range from start-ups to some of the most well-known organisations both in the UK and globally, Here East offers unparalleled new infrastructure for both innovation and excellence. In 2016, UCL took over 4,000 square metres of studio space at Here East, which will be used to undertake groundbreaking research in areas including architecture, infrastructure, transport, robotics, healthcare, manufacturing and environmental measurement. The Bartlett, UCL’s Faculty of the Built Environment, and UCL Engineering will be expanding into these premises in mid-2017.

Here East will be the base for four exciting new programmes: MArch Design for Manufacture MArch Design for Performance & Interaction MA Situated Practice MEng Engineering & Architectural Design The scale of The Bartlett at Here East will enable UCL to strengthen its interdisciplinary research and teaching, as well as promote greater engagement with the local community, in advance of the opening of UCL East at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in 2019.
