I’ve had some wonderful teaching and been given lots of opportunities.

I started networking and putting myself forward for things. I became an elite student and led a group of students on the Global Scholars programme to Bahrain.

Sanaa Nusrat BA (Hons) Economics with Mathematics graduate. Now studying at UEL for an MSc in Finance and Risk.

At the University of East London, we stand for academic excellence, creative thinking and inspirational teaching.

We’re one of the leading modern universities in the UK for research, and many of our teaching staff are world leaders in their field.

94%

of our research is ‘internationally recognised’ or higher (REF 2014).

We believe that knowledge transforms lives, and we’re committed to making a difference to society by fostering confident, life-ready individuals and through cutting-edge research that benefits communities.

In a recent national review, 62 per cent of our research was officially classified as either ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’. In Psychology, the impact of

our research was ranked equal first in the country, beating Oxford and Cambridge.

Our academics bring their research into the classroom, ensuring that what you learn represents the very latest thinking in your subject.

Many of our teaching staff also have rich professional experience. You could be taught by an Olympic gold medallist, a former business leader or a terrorism advisor to national governments.

Whoever you are taught by, you can be sure that you will receive a huge amount of personal support during your studies.

And you’ll be enriched by the amazing variety of backgrounds and cultures represented in our vibrant university.

people received pro bono advice from our Legal Advice Centre in 2013/14.

Many things have changed since 1898 and the founding of the technology institute which would eventually become the modern, forward-looking University of East London of today. But our desire to make a real difference to people’s lives through the work of our students and staff remains as strong as ever.

We aim to be London’s leading university for civic engagement.

As a student, you will be given the opportunity to deepen your learning experience by working on real-life projects that benefit communities locally and around the world.

By helping others you’ll gain the skills, values and experience that will help you become a confident, stand-out individual – and highly attractive to employers.

Civic engagement in action: Our acclaimed Legal Advice Centre is just one example of the work we’re doing. This is a busy law clinic in Stratford where our law students, supervised by qualified lawyers, provide free legal advice to local people.

It’s a valuable community service for people seeking advice about issues such as employment rights, landlord and tenant disputes and welfare benefits. And, of course, it’s fantastic experience for our student lawyers.

Some of our civic engagement projects include: —— UEL leaders are organising a week-long summer school on politics and activism for lower-income London teenagers.

Young men and women will learn how they can engage in political issues and become involved in social and political change.

——

UEL students are going out into the local area to advise residents who are concerned about debt and other money problems. Students are also working with young pupils to set up a Savers Bank in a local school. The bank will allow families to make regular savings deposits.

We offer exciting opportunities for you to take your learning overseas, whether it’s examining the music industry in India, learning about the Great Depression in New York or studying business management in Seoul. In the past year, our students have made study trips to 28 countries, travelling as far afield as Ghana, Vietnam, Iran, Jamaica and India. Students have coached underprivileged children in Malaysia, trained in martial arts in China and provided sports therapy to runners in the Berlin Marathon.

At UEL there’s a lot of teaching outside the classroom. I went out to Tanzania and spent four months studying at the University of Dar es Salaam. It opened my eyes to international development. I came back buzzing. I wanted to create social change.

‘Learning by doing’ is central to the way we teach. Whichever subject you choose to study, you’ll be able to apply your developing knowledge and expertise to real-life community projects – either as a course module or through volunteering.

When it comes to learning on campus, we don’t believe education should be about cramming hundreds of students into a lecture theatre. That’s why we’re moving towards smaller class sizes and more individual ways of teaching. It’s about interactive rather than passive learning – acquiring knowledge through debate, exploration, research, critical thinking and practical work.

Our belief in interactive learning means we’re taking a pioneering lead when it comes to technology. New undergraduates will be given a free Samsung tablet, pre-loaded with core textbooks. In 2014, we were the first university in the UK to give tablets to its entire first-year intake.

It was really important to me to study in London.

There’s so much to do.

I love the museums and the galleries and the freedom of it.

Nicola Duffy BA (Hons) English Literature graduate.

Our location in east London provides fantastic opportunities to gain hands-on experience in your chosen profession before you graduate.

Neighbouring Canary Wharf is a global hub for the finance and banking industry, while the nearby 02 Arena is officially the world’s No. 1 music venue. In recent years, media and technology companies and arts organisations have been pouring into the area, while overseas companies having been investing billions in huge property developments.

It’s hard to imagine a richer, more exciting environment in which to study for a degree. There are so many opportunities for real-world learning outside our campus in fields such as architecture, engineering, computing, social work, psychology, business, education, the arts, health and law.

East London is a living laboratory, right on our doorstep.

What could be more inspiring than living and learning in one of the world’s greatest cities? From historic buildings and monuments to world-famous museums and galleries; from exciting theatres and music venues to iconic sports stadiums; from renowned shopping districts to restaurants and cafés to suit all tastes and budgets …

London is a city that has it all.

It’s also a great starting point to visit other iconic European cities, such as Paris, Milan, Barcelona and many more.

The University of East London is based in two superbly equipped campuses – in Stratford, close to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, and in London Docklands, near Royal Albert Dock. Our area of east London is changing at an extraordinary speed, and we’re part of that dynamic process. We’ve invested £170 million in our facilities in the past decade to create a world-class learning environment.

Going to university is not just about studying.

It’s about growing as a person, pursuing non-academic interests, making lifelong friends and having fun. That’s something we never forget at the University of East London. Time and time again, our graduates tell us that studying at UEL was the best experience of their life.

The huge variety of clubs and societies on offer reflects our multicultural energy, from the Barking Bacteria samba fusion band to our student radio society, from faith groups to academic societies.

Our Students’ Union (UELSU) runs an exciting social calendar, organising trips and hosting regular parties, quiz nights, comedy and karaoke evenings and music events with guest DJs and bands.

The Underground Bar at our Docklands campus is always lively.

And if physical exercise is your thing, you won’t find anywhere better to work up a sweat than our superb SportsDock complex.

There are also 26 different sports clubs you can join – whatever your standard – from tennis to trampolining, American football to archery.

So what are you waiting for?

Doctors make decisions based on the results of tests carried out by biomedical scientists in the pathology laboratory, while patients benefit from their experience and expertise. Without their skills, key hospital departments such as Accident and Emergency couldn’t operate effectively.

During the course you’ll develop creative and technical skills, and we’ll give you a thorough grounding in applied production, engineering and materials exploration and technology.

Our course offers an in-depth understanding of the causes of disease and the practical ways in which they can be investigated in the laboratory. These are the fundamental areas of knowledge that you’ll need as a biomedical scientist.

The course fully integrates positive psychology and coaching psychology to create an innovative training programme for those promoting wellbeing.

This one-year full-time (or two-year part-time) course bridges the gap between BSc Psychology and doctoral-level training.

There is a growing recognition within the world’s coaching and positive psychology community that such integration is an important step forward, providing clients with a more openminded approach to their mental health.

From the point of view of positive psychology, the course will have a strong foundation in cutting-edge theory and research relating to wellbeing.

The coaching element will feature advanced training in working with clients and groups in professional capacities.

It is aimed at those who have had at least some experience in psychology services who want to go on to train as a researcher, a therapist, or a clinical, counselling or educational psychologist.

You need not have a first degree in Psychology but your training and experience must be in a related area and demonstrate a suitable career trajectory.

Getting onto a professional doctorate course is a highly competitive business but this MSc in a well-established, highly-regarded teaching environment could help give you the edge you need.

Why us?

When you graduate from this course you will operate as a more flexible consultant or practitioner in a rapidly developing and increasingly sought-after field.

Why us?

Our course, unlike most courses of this kind, is taught mainly by qualified and practising clinical psychologists.

You will be well versed in relevant scientific literature, with the confidence to apply this knowledge in your professional practice.

This course serves as a potential bridge between a Psychology or Psychology-related BSc and the prospect of doing further research or training or a professional doctorate.

This may involve working with individuals on a one-toone basis through executive coaching, or working at an organisational level using positive organisational scholarship.

Recent graduates have gone on to study for a PhD, or to work in NHS services, or undertake professional doctorates in Clinical, Educational and Counselling Psychology.

There is a significant demand for the skills that this integrated course develops.

The availability of intermediate exit points from this degree means that it is also a highly flexible way of returning to work with enhanced prospects.

Key modules include

You will also be well placed to apply for jobs such as junior/ assistant psychology posts, or research positions.

University of East London

PhD uel.ac.uk/int-phd

Our university, with its purpose-built iconic Docklands campus and historic Stratford campus located within a stone’s throw of the Olympic Park, is at the hub of Europe’s largest social regeneration initiative, one that is transforming the economic, cultural, and environmental prospects of a region stretching from Canary Wharf to the North Sea. Our critical contribution to that process has been recognised by the European Union and the UK government through the joint funding of Knowledge Dock, a UEL specialist knowledge transfer centre containing state of the art research facilities.

UEL’s expertise is thus at the forefront of the government’s commitment to building sustainable communities.

Our engagement takes many forms: promoting local involvement in public policy; capturing the oral histories of diaspora populations; developing entrepreneurial skills; designing sustainability into the transformed built environment; enabling participation for the excluded through digital media; fostering social and economic integration; and promoting physical and psychological health. Our MPhil, PhD and professional doctorate research programmes are fully engaged with these and many other areas critical to social, cultural, environmental, and economic regeneration.

Given the diverse range of the region’s cosmopolitan communities and the global perspectives required for urban regeneration within a world city, UEL’s research is also truly international in scope.

How to apply Prior to making your application, you are encouraged to identify a UEL school and supervisor which matches your area of interest. Details of school staff and their research and supervisory interests can be found by browsing the schools pages on the university’s website.
