UCL – a history of achievement 1826 UCL is founded to open up education to those who had been excluded from it.

By 1828 it has established England’s first academic departments in Chemistry, English, German and Italian – with Civil Engineering to follow in 1841.

1863 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.

1878 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.

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.

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

2009 UCL Partners, one of the UK’s first Academic Health Science Centres, is founded. Today, it has more than 40 participating institutions including UCL Hospitals, Great Ormond Street Hospital and Moorfields Eye Hospital.

2010 The Yale UCL Collaborative is launched. UCL and NYU Wagner announce a pioneering joint Executive MPA.

2014 UCL merges with the Institute of Education, creating the largest graduate institution in the UK with 19,000 graduate students.

2016 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.

Beyond 2016 The Bloomsbury Research Institute, created through a partnership between UCL and the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, is due to open.

The institute will house over 200 scientists who will conduct cutting-edge research focused on the most important global challenges in infectious disease.

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.

Belize A UCL Archaeology team is leading two long-term archaeological field projects at Maya sites in Belize.

An excavation of the important Lamanai site has had a significant impact on tourism and the local economy, which has benefited from 212,800 visitors between 2008–2013. A subsequent invitation to the Marco Gonzalez site, on Ambergris Caye, helped prevent its destruction by developers and has created a new recognition of local Maya heritage.

Peru UCL engineers are working with the Peruvian, German and UK governments to develop and implement low carbon transport policies. They 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 2016/17 ENTRY /

Europe UCL joins EU’s Graphene project to explore graphene applications and commercialisation. The UCL scientists’ work will focus on sheets of graphene in which about half of the carbon atoms are replaced with nitrogen. This changes the properties of the graphene, producing a web-like structure rather than a solid sheet, which gives it a much larger surface area. This structure modifies its electrical properties and can be good for a range of applications including batteries and catalysts.

Nepal Xtreme Everest, founded by doctors and scientists at UCL, has been conducting high altitude research in the Himalayas for the last ten years. Their aim is to understand more about how humans adapt to the low level of oxygen at altitude and ultimately improve survival rates of critically ill patients in intensive care.

Yemen India

The UCL Institute of Education worked with the Republic of Yemen to support aspects of the development of their school system. This consultancy, funded by the World Bank, provides tailored leadership development for members of the Modernisation Task Force and the Ministry of Education.

A collaboration between UCL, the Indian NGO Ekjut and the Public Health Foundation of India, the CARING trial is a research project aiming to improve nutrition and growth in the first 1,000 days of life in rural eastern India. The four-year study running from 2013–2017 aims to assess the feasibility of a community intervention to improve child growth in the rural districts of Jharkhand and Orissa, where the growth of over 60% of children is stunted.

Congo Basin

South Africa UCL has a partnership with the Africa Centre for Health and Population Studies based in KwaZulu-Natal. The centre carries out research on population and health issues affecting a rural population with one of the highest burdens of HIV in the world. The partnership provides the opportunity to develop novel research ideas and collaborations, whilst at the same time maximising the potential and impact of supported research projects.

A UCL Anthropology team have conducted research on how to implement the concept of free, prior and informed consent (FPIC) in the relations between forest dwellers and powerful companies. Further work with UCL Civil, Environmental & Geomatic Engineering has helped remote forest communities monitor logging companies, poachers, hunting offtake, and to document human rights abuses and corruption.

Australia UCL has signed a partnership agreement with the University of South Australia committing the two institutions to work together to develop teaching and research in South Australia in fields including minerals processing, advanced manufacturing, sustainable future energy production and protection, and care of the environment.

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.

TB or not TB Together with their global partners, scientists at UCL-TB have helped to reduce the time needed to genetically sequence the bacteria causing tuberculosis (Mtb) from weeks to days. As part of the European Union FP7-funded PATHSEEK consortium they have developed a new technique that could help health service providers to better treat disease, control transmission of this infection, and monitor outbreaks. With the rapid sequencing this work makes available, it will be possible to trace TB infections in communities, or to identify a few highly infectious people, sometimes called ‘super-spreaders’.

Gather with kith and kin A team of researchers from the Hunter-Gatherer Resilience Project in UCL Anthropology have demonstrated that sex equality in decision-making within hunter-gatherer groups results in a lower level of relatedness in a group’s composition. The team’s work noted that it wasn’t that individuals are not interested in living with kin, but rather, if all individuals seek to live with as many kin as possible, no-one ends up living with many kin at all. It is from modern-day hunter-gatherer societies that we get the closest extant examples of human lifestyles and social organisation in the past, offering important insights into human evolutionary history.

GRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2016/17 ENTRY /

Able cable A new way to process fibre optic signals has been demonstrated

by UCL Engineering researchers. This could double the distance at which data travels error-free through transatlantic submarine cables. The new method has the potential to reduce the costs of long-distance optical fibre communications. Signals would no longer need to be electronically boosted on their underground or ocean-floor journeys. One of the biggest global challenges is how to maintain communications with demand for the Internet booming – finding processes to overcome the capacity limits of optical fibre cables is a large part of solving that problem.

07

Genome is where the heart is Researchers at UCL’s Genetics Institute, along with those from the University of Oxford and the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute in Australia, have helped create the first fine-scale genetic map of any country in the world. The Wellcome Trust-funded People of the British Isles study enabled researchers to ‘zoom in’ to examine the genetic patterns in the UK. Subtle genetic differences between UK regions were teased out using sophisticated statistical methods that model how the population’s genomes are made up of stretches of DNA, passed down the generations from ancestors.

Many people in the UK feel a strong sense of regional identity, and it now appears that there may be a scientific basis to this feeling.

Maintaining a clean sheet A super-hydrophobic paint developed by scientists in UCL Chemistry could have great promise for commercial self-cleaning coatings. It can be applied to many surfaces and forms a tough surface that resists abrasion, and repels water extremely effectively. As the water forms a bead and rolls off the surface, it dislodges any dust, dirt, bacteria or viruses that are present. In the example shown, a pattern has been drawn onto glass using the coating, and water is repelled from the painted areas and restricted to the untreated areas.

A FLAVOUR OF UCL’S RESEARCH /

Seen and heard A UCL Institute of Education study explores the experiences of children and young people in residential special schools. The research, undertaken for the Office of the Children’s Commissioner, showed the challenges professionals have in ‘hearing’ every child, particularly those with severe communication challenges. It also revealed further pressures, not only in spending sufficient time understanding the child, but also supporting plans necessary for his or her wellbeing. Children who took part in the project collaborated with an illustrator to produce a book of images and cartoons, My Life at School, to express their thoughts, feelings and opinions.

Courting opinion At the request of the senior judiciary in England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, the UCL Judicial Institute has conducted the first ever survey of all serving salaried judges in the UK about their working lives. The results show that there are deep-seated concerns amongst most judges about the decline in working conditions in recent years. The survey found that 75% of judges have suffered a net loss of earnings over the last five years, and 78% said that their pay and pension together do not adequately reflect the work they do. The study found that the overwhelming majority of judges at all levels of the judiciary would not encourage suitably qualified candidates to apply to join their ranks due to declining working conditions and income, and a very high proportion of judges are considering leaving the judiciary for the same reasons.

09 One lab ‘to go’ A cross-disciplinary team of students from UCL Life Sciences, Engineering and Physics is on a mission to make biology available to all: curious makers, ambitious students, innovative artists and cutting-edge scientists. The 30cm x 21cm x 5cm Bento Lab is the first complete personal laboratory, complete with a 12-samples PCR machine, a 12,000 rpm centrifuge and a gel electrophoresis unit with blue LED transillumination. Bento Lab aims to make all aspects of bio intuitive, empowering, convenient and fun. It is also intended to make the future of biology more inclusive, fair and democratic for everyone.

Feeling chirpy Chirp, the award-winning sonic data transfer app developed and launched at UCL, received investment pledges totalling over £750,000 from a 2015 Crowdcube fundraising call. This is the largest amount raised by any UK university spinout company via crowdfunding and the first for a UCL spinout. This included a pledge of £215,000 from London-based investment firm GuanQun Investment UK. The campaign also benefited from an early match-funding pledge from the London Co-Investment Fund. Chirp is a highly flexible platform and can be used to share any data, from pictures to payments. The company behind Chirp pushed out a number of new product features including Chirp for Chrome. Chirp has gone on to establish itself as a Top 20 App in 58 App Stores worldwide.

Corpora benefits There is a long tradition of using invented sentences to illustrate grammar in textbooks. The UCL Survey of English Usage, established in 1959, collected and analysed a number of corpora of spoken and written English and in 1998 was used as a basis for the Internet Grammar of English, which eventually accumulated over 3.7 million users. Now, with support from UCL Business plc, UCL researchers from the UCL English have developed a popular app, called iGE. Since its launch the app has been downloaded by over 46,000 users, becoming a widely recommended learning tool for English, with a five-star rating on both the Apple and the Google Play stores. It is available in free and paid versions, and accessible worldwide.

ARTS & HUMANITIES /

UCL Arts & Humanities is a renowned centre of excellence where research of world-leading quality feeds directly into programmes of study both within departments of English, Philosophy, Classics, Hebrew and Jewish Studies, Information Studies, Modern European Languages and Fine Art, and within the Centre for Multidisciplinary & Intercultural Inquiry.

Dr Stephanie Bird Senior Lecturer in German

I’m interested in the novel, narrative technique, literary theory and theories of gender. I have worked on the interaction of fact and fiction in the novel, on the relationship of female and national identity, and on the representation and ethics of shame. I’m currently working on an interdisciplinary project with German historians looking at the reverberations of the Second World War in Europe. Our focus is on conflicting, unexpected and often dissonant interpretations and representations of these events in order to enrich our understanding of the complex ways in which the disturbing past continues to haunt – and is in turn disturbed by – a later present. As part of this project I’m writing a comparative study of the role of comedy in the representation of suffering in the work of post-war German-language writers and directors.

Amirah Modh Zaki Ophthalmology PhD

I study the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of ocular allergy, focusing on the role of cytokines (small protein mediators produced by immune cells during allergic inflammation). Cytokines released by immune and non-immune cells are important for cell signalling to affect the behaviour of target cells/ tissues during allergic inflammation.

Proinflammatory cytokines are known to cause symptoms seen in allergic conjunctivitis. The focus of my PhD is to identify the role of IL-9, a proinflammatory cytokine which is mostly known to be involved in and upregulate symptoms which are seen in allergic asthma. I have used human conjunctiva tissue biopsies alongside in vitro and in vivo models of allergic conjunctivitis to study the functional role of IL-9 and its receptor. My research has enabled us to understand the role of IL-9 as a potential therapeutic target on the ocular surface.

EDUCATION /

The UCL Institute of Education (IOE) is a world-leading centre for research and teaching in education and social science, ranked first for education in the QS World University Rankings (2014). Our mission is to advance education in its broadest sense, for all, and to support those who make it possible.

Professor Carey Jewitt Professor of Technology and Learning

I study the ways we communicate and learn. With colleagues, I look beyond language to understand how teachers and students use a range of resources to teach and learn, their bodies, gesture and gaze as well as images and objects, what we call multimodal communication.

I also investigate the ways that digital technologies shape communication and learning and how these draw us into looking, and physical forms of interaction, rather than foregrounding talk. We have researched how people interact with a range of technologies from everyday mobile devices, to custom-made interfaces that rely on whole body interaction, in schools, museums, and the home. We are developing methods for researching the multimodal features of interaction and digital interfaces, and how they relate to learning. This interdisciplinary work is relatively new and very exciting, and involves collaboration with colleagues from sociology, psychology, human computer interaction, fashion, performance and art and design.

Our established reputation for cutting-edge legal research places us at the heart of policy, practice and impact.

Dr Virginia Mantouvalou Reader in Human Rights and Labour Law/Co-Director of the Institute for Human Rights

I examine the interplay between human rights and labour law. For example, I explore the human and labour rights of domestic workers, the right to privacy in the workplace, modern slavery, the labour rights of undocumented migrants, the right to work and social rights more broadly, human rights and the contract of employment. I believe that there is scope for cross-fertilisation between the two areas. I conduct both theoretical and empirical research.

I hope that my research can help us gain a better understanding both on the foundations of the law and its application and effects in real life.

I am particularly interested in the protection of the most vulnerable groups, such as domestic workers and undocumented migrants more generally.

Veronika Kallo Biosciences PhD

My PhD research focuses on iron’s role in neurodegeneration.

The key pathological features of sporadic neurodegenerative disorders are the accumulation of iron, and chronic inflammation in areas of comprehensive cell death. I am studying iron regulation in the brain within microglial cells and neurons.

Microglia are principally responsible for mediating inflammation within neurons, which eventually undergo cell death which is partly due to iron deregulation during the inflammatory process. I have developed further insight into how iron metabolism is altered by studying transport and storage of iron within these cells, under conditions of inflammation.

Gaining a more profound understanding of iron regulation in the central nervous system could lead to the development of medical interventions designed to treat and maybe prevent neurodegenerative disease. I sincerely hope that my research endeavours will contribute in some small way to this wider goal.

MATHEMATICAL & PHYSICAL SCIENCES /

The Faculty of Mathematical & Physical Sciences encompasses the logical, experimental and mathematical study of our Universe. Front-line research feeds directly into our teaching programmes, and our students benefit from access to first-class facilities. The faculty offers a range of programmes in emerging as well as more traditional academic areas.

Marianna Demetriou Statistical Science PhD

Modern computing power provides the opportunity to simulate systems of ever-increasing complexity; inference from simulators is used to inform high-impact strategies, such as climate change adaptation and risk assessment of natural hazards. A significant level of uncertainty arises from the choice of simulator to inform about the real state of the system under study; a widely-used approach for quantifying this uncertainty is to combine information from different simulators, which form the so-called ‘multi-model ensemble’ (MME).

My PhD research is about developing a realistic statistical framework for MME interpretation and quantifying the underlying uncertainties, in order to learn about reality. The challenge of MME interpretation is timely and arises in a range of applications, ranging from climate science to earthquake engineering.

MAIN IMAGE: A high-powered refrigerator, used for cooling samples to within a fraction of absolute zero.

UCL Medical Sciences is committed to delivering medical advances, teaching and translational impact to transform the health and wellbeing of both UK and international populations.

Dr Julie Olszewski Principal Teaching Fellow

My research background is in molecular biology, virology and genetics. I’ve always been fascinated by the inner workings of the cell and how the regulation of cellular function can be subverted through a disease process. I joined UCL with the exciting prospect of creating a new postgraduate programme at the Cancer Institute, led by clinician scientists and basic research scientists, to explore the causes of cancer and the newest strategies for the rational treatment of cancer. The MSc in Cancer has now grown to include over 120 bespoke lectures, activities and practicals across a wide spectrum of cancer research topics including the latest developments in tumour heterogeneity, cancer immunotherapy, epigenetics, and precision cancer medicine. As the institute positions itself as the major international hub for cancer research, now has never been a more exciting time to be involved in the cutting-edge advances in translational science currently taking place here, all feeding directly into our teaching.

FACULTY OF

POPULATION HEALTH SCIENCES /

Our goal is to produce outstanding students equipped to promote improvements in health worldwide. Encompassing institutes in women’s health, child health, global health and cardiovascular sciences, as well as in epidemiology and health care, clinical trials, and health informatics, the faculty has created an exciting and cross-disciplinary environment for the study of population health across the life-course.

Natasha Liou Reproductive Science and Women’s Health MSc

Pre-term birth is the leading cause of child morbidity and mortality around the world, and one of its known associated risk factors is the presence of urinary tract infections in pregnant women.

My research investigates the role of an alternative sampling method to improve detection of these infections. I interact directly with the patients on labour wards to obtain two urinary samples, one using the standard mid-stream catch and another using a urinary catheter.

These samples are immediately analysed under the microscope for various cells counts. The samples are brought to the laboratory for immunohistochemical staining which allows for identification of specific cell structures based on the strength of the fluorescent signal. Enhanced culture, gram staining and other benchtop tests are also undertaken to assess for the presence of fastidious bacteria. Through comparative analysis of both sampling methods, I hope to establish which performs best at identifying urinary tract infections.

Research groups and strengths Our institutes 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, Health Informatics and for 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 52–53 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 [NIHR], 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. 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-based teaching institution. Their involvement in cutting-edge research delivers a unique teaching environment.

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 Our teaching and computing facilities incorporate current technology, and provide audiovisual facilities as well as Lecturecast in many sites.

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, and developmental paediatrics. UCL’s extensive network of library services and new student hubs provide core facilities, and

students normally have access to local common rooms. The faculty is enhancing e-learning provision and delivering student-focused initiatives – for example, a Postgraduate Research Mentoring Scheme and faculty careers events and induction days – 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. NIHR, Cancer Research UK) and/or available in annual competition to support the best proposals in a given field (e.g. Child Health Research Appeal Trust). Scholarships are also secured for taught programmes where funders believe they address specific training and capacity requirements. The nature of the funding, with a relatively fast-changing landscape of funding opportunities, determines that all scholarships are held at institute or 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. 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.

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, South-Eastern Europe, Russia and Eurasia.

We are globally recognised for our distinct, cross-disciplinary research, teaching and policy advising, and offer innovative programmes in Economics and Business, History, Languages and Culture, and Politics and Sociology.

Dr Rachel Morley Lecturer in Russian Cinema and Culture

My current research focuses on early Russian cinema and in particular on the representation of gender and the development of a specifically cinematic language in films made during the period 1908 to 1918. My work in this area is fundamentally interdisciplinary and draws on a broad range of cultural disciplines, including film, dance, literature, theatre and gender studies, art history and history. My aim is to explore the contribution early Russian filmmakers made to the development of the new art form of cinema and to demonstrate the still under-appreciated sophistication and originality of Russian filmmaking during this period. Other research interests include the pre-Revolutionary Russian film press, Soviet silent cinema and its aesthetic relationship with early Russian cinema, the resurgence of fin-de-siècle concerns in contemporary Russian cinema and female filmmakers working in 21st-century Russia.

MAIN IMAGE: Professor Jan Kubik, SSEES Director and Professor of Slavonic and East European Studies. His work is focused on three areas: the relationship between culture and political power, protest politics and social movements, and postcommunist transformations in Eastern Europe.

Research groups and strengths SSEES’s mission is based on three principles: to create and broadly disseminate in-depth knowledge and understanding of Eastern Europe in regional, comparative, transnational, and global contexts; to facilitate multi-disciplinary, interdisciplinary, and multi-method approaches to knowledge building and student training; and to promote and enhance the development of area studies at UCL and among the wider academic community. SSEES hosts several interdisciplinary research centres and groups, and leads the inter-university Centre for East European Language Based Area Studies (CEELBAS). New Horizons, a programme funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation of New York, is based at SSEES and works on understanding fast-changing developments in the post-Soviet space within a multi-disciplinary and transnational framework. We have recently established FRINGE (Centre for the Study of Social & Cultural Complexity) and CCSEE (Centre for Comparative Studies of Emerging Economies). Our researchers lead one of the four strands in a 21-strong international consortium for a major EU-funded project (ANTICORRP), investigating European responses to the challenge of corruption.

A list of taught programmes can be found on page 53 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, 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 International Master’s programme (IMESS). With our ideal central London location, we have long cultivated successful connections with the London embassies, and regularly co-sponsor events involving leading international figures such as Martti Ahtisaari, Madeleine Albright, Gordon Bajnai and Slavoj Žižek.

Global networks At the heart of SSEES’s international networks is the SSEES-led IMESS programme, developed from long-standing 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).

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. In addition, up to six SSEES studentships are awarded annually, 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 departments, whose research expertise ranges from Archaeology, Anthropology, Geography and the Americas, through to History, History of Art, Economics and Political Science, offer excellent opportunities for innovative and collaborative research.

Professor Jonathan Bell Professor of American History

I’m a historian of US politics, with a particular emphasis on American liberalism since the New Deal and the ways in which liberal politics have adapted to social change during the 20th century. My current project, tentatively entitled Unhealthy Bodies: Health Care and the Rights Revolution since the Sixties, aims to unite the two phenomena of rights politics and health care delivery politics to help us understand how the sexual and gender dynamics of medical care in the US shed significant light on the political culture of the nation at a time of substantial political change in the era of government and health care retrenchment that began in the 1970s and grew considerably in the Reagan era. The project shows that both state and private conceptions of gender and sexuality impacted upon how a diverse range of different population groups experienced ‘health care’, and demonstrates how a private-public delivery system drastically impacted upon the ability of rights movements to translate basic legal rights into full-blown economic citizenship.

MAIN IMAGE: Kevin MacDonald, Professor of African Archaeology, whose research focuses on the settlement organisation of Segou (c. 1700–1861) and the local histories of its historic towns and villages, as well as earlier polities such as the Empire of Mali and the Confederation of Do (all in the modern Republic of Mali).

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.

We are also a partner institution in the London Arts and Humanities Partnership (LAHP), alongside King’s College London and the School of Advanced Study. LAHP will train up to 400 graduate students in these three universities over seven years and the training programme will serve approximately 1,300 research students.

A list of taught programmes can be found on pages 54–55 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.

The European Institute is UCL’s hub for research, collaboration and information on Europe and the European Union. It builds networks and alliances across the EU, and provides expert analysis and commentary on topical events and developments. UCL’s new Institute for Advanced Study provides a research environment that is organised by themes of global significance, bringing together international researchers across a range of academic disciplines to address universal challenges.

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 series of inaugural lectures with the Faculty of Arts & Humanities and the School of Slavonic & East European Studies.

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 Wolfson Scholarships, with further opportunities available through the UCL Doctoral School.

In addition, students may apply for scholarships funded through the Arts and Humanities Research Council. Support for a range of student-led conferences, seminars and workshops is provided across both Arts & Humanities and Social & Historical Sciences in the form of the Joint Faculty Institute of Graduate Studies, leading to a wide range of interdisciplinary events, with students encouraged to organise and run their own projects. This creates a rich and diverse opportunity for graduate students to further their research, learning and networking across both faculties; a truly interdisciplinary experience. Funding for research students is also available at faculty level for research projects, conferences and external training.

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; teamwork; 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.

Types of study and entry requirements /

Research programmes We offer a variety of research programmes which include the opportunity to undertake substantial, in-depth research and make an original contribution to your chosen field.

Taught programmes

Research degrees may start at any time of the year, but typically begin in September.

Our taught programmes are designed to meet a range of needs – they may provide a foundation for research, or a route to career advancement.

Many of them offer flexible learning options to allow you to combine your study with professional or personal commitments.

Doctor of Philosophy – PhD Master of Philosophy – MPhil

Taught programmes normally begin at the start of the academic year in September.

PhD study is offered in all UCL’s academic units. Students are required initially to register for the MPhil qualification and upgrade after one year (it is also possible to register with the intention of graduating with the MPhil degree). The MPhil/PhD programme normally lasts for three years full-time or five years part-time, although some are offered on a four-year full-time basis.

Master’s programmes These include Master of: Architecture (MArch), Arts (MA), Business Administration (MBA), Clinical Dentistry (MClinDent), Fine Art (MFA), Laws (LLM), Public Administration (MPA), Sciences (MSc) Teaching (MTeach), as well as Executive Master of Public Administration (EMPA).

UCL hosts a large number of prestigious, UK government funded, Doctoral Training Centres. Programmes are funded for four years.

The first year includes taught elements for developing research and transferable skills as well as a research element to explore potential PhD-level topics. For a list of the centres, see www.ucl.ac.uk/ graduate/research

Master’s programmes usually extend over 12 months full-time or two years part-time; an increasing number are offered on a flexible learning basis over three to five years. Many programmes offered by the Institute of Education are taught on a mixed mode basis; combining face-to-face sessions with online learning. Please see individual programme entries online at www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate for information.

Doctor in Engineering – EngD

Master of Research – MRes

This is a four-year, full-time programme, developed to provide business and technical expertise in conjunction with doctoral-level research skills.

Students carry out an industrial research project within a company as part of the programme.

The MRes degree normally extends over 12 months full-time, though some may be offered part-time (please see individual programme entries online at www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate for information). The degree includes taught elements, a significant research component, and training in research techniques to form the basis for doctoral study or a research career.

Doctor of Medicine (Research) – MD(Res) This programme is aimed specifically at clinical practitioners who wish to undertake a piece of supervised research associated with their employment. Students must be registered for a minimum of two calendar years (either full-time or part-time) before submitting a thesis for examination.

Postgraduate Diploma – PG Dip These programmes usually share an identical syllabus with the taught component of a corresponding Master’s programme, and extend over nine months full-time or two years part-time, or longer if flexible study is offered.

Professional Doctorates

Postgraduate Certificate – PG Cert

These programmes provide an education at an intellectual level equivalent to that of a PhD. In addition to the research component and thesis, they include elements of a practical, work-related and professional nature, as well as taught components assessed by coursework.

These programmes offer a certificated qualification attained over a shorter period of study – usually 15 weeks full-time or over one to two years if taken flexibly. They usually consist of selected components of a corresponding Master’s or Postgraduate Diploma programme.

Professional Doctorates are offered within the Faculties of Brain Sciences and Medical Sciences and the Institute of Education.

For details (including entry requirements) of free-standing Graduate Diplomas in Archaeology and Civil Engineering please contact the relevant department.

Master in Philosophical Studies – MPhil Stud This two-year research degree, offered by the Department of Philosophy, includes a significant taught component and is the standard route for entry for a PhD in the department.

Graduate Diplomas – Grad Dip

Distance learning An increasing number of UCL graduate programmes can be taken on a distance learning basis, whereby all teaching is delivered online. Please see individual programme entries online at www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate

Short courses and continuing professional development Academic units may offer modules from taught programmes and/or short courses, seminars and summer schools to support continuing professional development or for general interest. See www.ucl.ac.uk/ lifelearning for more information.

Visiting Research and Graduate Affiliate study Students registered for graduate programmes overseas may, subject to any restrictions placed on them by their ‘home’ university, study at UCL for a period of between three and twelve months and transfer credit earned to the home institution to count towards the award of their degree.

It is possible to study on this basis as a research student (Visiting Research Student) or graduate taught student (Graduate Affiliate Student). To do so you will be required to meet the usual academic and English language requirements for the programme on which you intend to study.

More information about Visiting Research and Graduate Affiliate study can be found at www.ucl.ac.uk/affiliate

International qualifications UCL considers a wide range of international qualifications for entry to its degree programmes. Please refer to the online UCL Graduate Prospectus for details of qualification equivalencies (www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate; entry requirements information is on the individual degree pages).

English language proficiency requirements If your first language is not English you will be required to provide recent evidence that your command of English is adequate. This may take the form of substantial education (usually at least 12 months) or work experience (usually at least 18 months), conducted in English in a majority English-speaking country, no more than two years prior to the date of enrolment. Alternatively, applicants may provide an English language qualification recognised by UCL and awarded not more than two years prior to the date of enrolment. If you are a visa national, your qualification must have been taken within two years of receiving a Confirmation of Acceptance of Studies (CAS) from UCL. More details about English language proficiency requirements can be found at www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate/apply

Further information

Entry requirements MPhil/MPhil Stud/PhD/EngD Entry requirements vary, but will normally be a first or upper-second class UK Bachelor’s degree in an appropriate subject, or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard from a recognised higher education institution, or a recognised MRes or Master’s degree.

MD(Res) Applicants should hold a registered primary qualification in Medicine (e.g. MBBS), and be eligible for full registration or hold limited registration with the General Medical Council (GMC).

Professional Doctorates Please contact the relevant academic unit for specific entry requirements for these programmes.

Key Notes for International students

RESEARCH PROGRAMMES e.g. MPhil/PhD

TAUGHT PROGRAMMES e.g. MSc, MA, MRes

Identify a research area/programme you are interested in; these are listed in the online Prospectus. Check that you meet the entry requirements.

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.

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.

Check application deadlines.

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: 1. UCL’s Graduate Prospectus to find relevant academic units (www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate); 2. UCL IRIS to find academics relevant to your research interest (www.ucl.ac.uk/iris); 3. UCL Discovery, to find papers and authors relevant to you (www.ucl.ac.uk/discovery).

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.

SUBMIT APPLICATION TO UCL (www.ucl.ac.uk/graduate/apply)

Use the Applicant Portal to track the progress of your application.

GRADUATE PROSPECTUS 2016/17 ENTRY /
