Welcome to the University of East London

UEL is a vibrant and dynamic modern university, located in the most exciting area of one of the world’s greatest cities.

At UEL, we have a clear mission – to inspire you with an enthusiasm for new ideas, to offer you exciting opportunities to excel in your chosen careers, and to provide you with the perfect place to pursue new knowledge, new learning and new understanding.

Our £130 million campus development programme has brought a stunning range of new, state-of-the-art facilities to our campuses, including:

- centres for our Schools of Business and Computing & Technology
- multimedia libraries with 24/7 access
- computing suites, including our 600-station Trading Floor
- Our Student Village, with purpose-built accommodation, shop and café-bar
- A clinical centre for podiatry, physiotherapy and sports science, the only facility of its kind in London
- Knowledge Dock, our knowledge transfer hub working with local businesses and entrepreneurs.

Added to our innovative, flexible degrees and stimulating, inspiring environment, this has helped establish UEL as a leading modern university.

Our success has also achieved wider recognition. The prestigious Times Good University Guide 2007 ranked us as the UK’s Number 1 university for spend per student on facilities, and we are one of only three UK universities to receive the Government’s Chartermark award for excellence in customer service.

With around 20,000 students, UEL is a fast-growing and dynamic learning community. We are also at the centre of East London’s rapid cultural, economic and technological growth, from the emerging 2012 Olympic City at Stratford, to Docklands in the Thames Gateway, one of Europe’s fastest-growing economic regeneration areas.

We very much hope that you will be inspired to find out more about UEL and why our university is such a great place to be.
