For almost 200 years, UCL Laws has been one of the leading centres of legal education in the world.

Our community of intellectually dynamic scholars responds to today’s global challenges, and through our research we help to shape government policy, national and international law and its practice. At the heart of legal London, we attract the leading figures in the field to contribute to our vibrant programme of events, informing public debate and understanding of contemporary social, legal, environmental and economic issues.

The UCL Laws student body numbers around 1,330 students, currently divided between approximately 800 undergraduate, 450 taught graduate, and 80 graduate research students. The faculty has an academic staff of around 55 professors, lecturers and readers, as well as many visiting professors, lecturers and distinguished judicial visitors, and our dedicated team of professional services staff provides valuable support to both our students and academic staff.

Throughout our long history, we have been committed to the values of the founders of UCL: justice, liberty and equal rights for all.
