Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) is one of the UK’s leading global universities, highly rated for our teaching, research and innovation. We offer our students an outstanding education in a supportive and inspiring environment based in one of the world’s most exciting cities. Sought out by academics and students from across the world, it’s no surprise that we are ranked 5th in the UK for our research*.

 

A capital legacy

Our history is deeply connected to the capital. We evolved from the People’s Palace, a Victorian venture to bring culture, recreation and education to the East End, and we continue to welcome and nurture the most talented individuals from all backgrounds today.

Our School of Medicine and Dentistry can be traced back to the late 18th century with the beginnings of medical teaching at the Royal London Hospital Medical College in 1785.

We expanded and developed our teaching and research throughout the 20th century. Today, we are a member of the Russell Group – the UK’s top 24 universities recognised for their teaching and research excellence. 

Our Research

Our research has a global impact. From the discovery of a new world – Proxima b – to the application of new cancer treatments, the influence of international trade policies, and more, it informs and shapes our teaching. We’ve developed community, business and industry contacts that we’ve embedded in our degrees to make sure you have the best skills and experiences come graduation. 

 

Study with the best

Be at home in the city

We have five campuses across east and central London and our site at Mile End is home to one of the largest residential campuses in the capital. Like the city, we’ve grown and reinvented ourselves to keep pace with a changing world. Our vibrant and diverse student community is part of London’s dynamic East End, famed for its rich history and thriving cultural scene.
