Ranked second in the word for Art and Design in the 2022 QS World University Ranking, UAL is hugely international, with a reputation that attracts over 22,000 students from 130 countries, creating a vibrant, multi-cultural community environment. Now is an exciting time to be joining UAL to take up this role. Following the creation of the UAL Strategy 2022-2032, a 10-year Estates Strategy has been developed. In the next decade we aim to complete the delivery of two major developments for London College of Fashion and London College of Communication (including a new hub for University Services), thus rehousing circa 50% of the UAL population over the period. We will embark on a period of estate consolidation ensuring that the UAL estate is fit for purpose, sustainable and provides world- class facilities and experience to our students, staff and partners.
