About University of West London
The University of West London (UWL) is situated in the London borough of Ealing, a leafy enclave to the west of the city.
The institution is widely known as the 'Career University’, an accolade adopted by UWL in recognition of its excellent teaching standards and high graduate employment rates.
The university is comprised of nine academic Schools and Colleges:
• The Claude Littner Business School
• School of Computing and Engineering
• School of Law
• London Geller College of Hospitality and Tourism
• London School of Film, Media and Design
• London College of Music
• School of Human and Social Sciences
• School of Biomedical Sciences
• College of Nursing, Midwifery and Healthcare
These schools operate across three main campuses. Ealing and Brentford are close together, connected by a free shuttle bus, and surrounded by independent cafés, high-street shopping and plenty of entertainment venues. Students studying midwifery and nursing courses can also attend the Berkshire Institute for Health at Fountain House, in the historic market town of Reading.
Each of UWL’s campuses has excellent academic facilities, including libraries on both Ealing and Reading campuses, with open-access computers, e-resources, IT support and bookable study spaces. The university also provides industry-leading training facilities, labs and medical simulation centres.
With UWL located across London and Reading, there is plenty to discover both on and off campus. On the Ealing campus, there are regular live music events, quizzes and comedy nights hosted by the SU, and plenty of clubs and society-based activities. After a hard day’s studying, students can head into central London to explore the capital’s art, culture and historical sites, and check out the vast array of cafes, restaurants, bars, clubs and theatres to suit any taste.
Students in Reading can enjoy a variety of shops, bars and clubs – minus the London price tag. There is always something to do, usually within walking distance of the campus.
For UWL students wishing to explore further afield, London is well-connected to vibrant cities such as Manchester, Cardiff and Brighton by national bus and rail services. London also has great international travel links to Europe and beyond.
