Get ready to celebrate UCL’s Bicentenary!

Описание: 2026 marks a major milestone for UCL - our 200th birthday!

In 1826, London was the largest city in the world, but it had no university. UCL was founded with a radical vision – to be the first University in London and the first to admit students regardless of their religion, gender or social background.

On the 11th February, the same day UCL was founded 200 years ago, we will kick off an exciting and varied UCL200 programme! Expect spectacular opening and closing parties, a major new exhibition, huge student festivals, art installations, new books, performances, and opportunities to learn new skills and give back to London. Get ready to celebrate!
