UCL's Pool St West and Marshgate buildings, either side of the water in the Olympic Park in the evening, up river from the Aquatics Centre - UCL's brand new campus, UCL East, is just months away from opening in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park at East Bank in September as part of the education and cultural legacy of London 2012. UCL East will be home to around 60 innovative new UCL degree programmes and research in fields like decarbonising transport, biodiversity, robotics, AI, disability and accessibility, sport science and technology, manufacturing, architecture, health, finance, business, media, heritage and culture. From September 2022, UCL will be offering not just one but two iconic locations in London to work, study and live in, building on our reputation for collaboration, disruption and innovation. It will help turn UCL's excellence in research, teaching and learning into an even greater number of practical applications that deliver economic and social value to London and the world. The new campus on the waterfront in the Park will include apartments for over 500 students, cafes, a shop, state of the art research laboratories, fabrication workshops, a unique urban room for public engagement, a cinema and public art installations. Frequent high-speed trains between Stratford International and London St Pancras will link UCL East with UCL's Bloomsbury campus. Students will study in cutting-edge new research centres on courses developed with experts from business and industry in a unique environment bringing diverse minds from different disciplines together to tackle the biggest issues facing the world today.
