UCL was founded in 1826 to open up higher education in England to those who had been excluded from it. It was the first university in England to welcome students of any religion or social background, and the first in England to welcome women to university education. This challenge to the norm and commitment to a fairer society was considered deeply unconventional by contemporary commentators.
At the very heart of UCL's mission is our research. The university was rated the top university in the UK for research strength in the last “Research Excellence Framework (REF 2014).”
UCL’s researchers are continually making an impact on the world we live in; creating headlines across subject areas, locally in the UK and across the globe. UCL's research-based teaching methodology means that research is integrated into many of our degrees and students have the opportunity to make an original contribution to their field of study.
UCL understands that students choose to enter graduate study for a myriad of reasons, and they are deeply committed to supporting our student’s aspirations and enhancing their skills and employability.
UCL Careers helps students to find their perfect career, develop their professional skills or start their own business through one-to-one guidance and events, as well as a variety of career information.
Recruitment and networking events help students improve their knowledge of a particular industry sector and specific employers. For students interested in starting a business, UCL Innovation and Enterprise gives expert advice and practical support, as well as networking opportunities.
The Global Student Satisfaction Awards empower students across the globe to determine the best universities of 2019. By rating institutions on a scale from 1 to 5, on multiple studies-related questions, we found the top educators in the world.

During the coronavirus pandemic, UCL did no provide sufficient resources to sustain the level of education expected from my degree.
Giving schoolership is much helpful for students to continue their studies.
So Far I have been receiving online lectures all the time due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, and it is not as efficient as receiving face to face lectures, and worst of all, tuition fees for international students are higher than the last year's tuition fees.
