Graduate degree apprenticeships

Degree apprenticeships are a unique type of graduate programme that combines full-time paid work with part-time study. Apprentices split their time between university study and the workplace and gain a Master’s level qualification whilst getting on-the-job experience in their chosen profession.

Summer school

Choose from a wide variety of modules offered by many of our renowned academic departments. Most modules are taught on the Bloomsbury campus and, where possible, also make use of London as a learning space, including excursions and field trips to areas in and around the city.

UCL student experience

I love the non-academic side of UCL: the student societies, guest speakers, and The Global Citizenship Programme. There is so much to get involved with, in addition to studying of course. I got involved in parkour at UCL Parkour Society, something I had never thought of trying before.
