Come to Queen Mary

Queen Mary say they are investors in people, and that’s so true in every sense.

The kind of training, mentoring, coaching and lecturer-student relationship I’ve had in the one year of studying here proves it. I feel I’ve been challenged with a responsibility to not only be a graduate of the school, but also to go out and be an investor in other people.

Russell Group Queen Mary is a member of the Russell Group, the 24 leading universities in the UK. This distinction recognises our commitment to delivering world-class research, teaching and learning.

A history of social justiceQueen Mary has its roots in four historic institutions that were founded to help the less privileged.

At a time when women and working-class communities faced extreme barriers to education, the People’s Palace invited people from all backgrounds to study together, and Westfield College was the first residential college in London for women.

The London Hospital Medical College and St Bartholomew’s Hospital Medical College were founded in 1785 and 1843 respectively, to improve the health of impoverished communities in the City and east London.

These founders aspired to create places where everyone would have access to the same opportunities in education, recreation and culture, regardless of background.

Leading through researchQueen Mary is one of the UK’s leading research-intensive universities. You will be taught by world-class academics whose research directly informs our wide range of postgraduate programmes. It is this environment that makes Queen Mary such an exciting place to undertake your postgraduate study.

Innovative research and teachingWorking closely with industry, government, business, communities and charities, the outcomes of our research are felt around the world, from the communities of east London to the favelas of Rio de Janeiro.

• Queen Mary was ranked fifth in the UK for the quality of research outputs (4* and 3*) in the Research Excellence Framework (latest REF, 2014).

• Eight of our alumni and staff have won a Nobel Prize.

• Queen Mary is in the top ten UK universities for quality of research (Complete University Guide).

What we offerWe offer a wide range of full-time, part-time and online learning programmes in the humanities, social sciences, science and engineering, medicine and dentistry. Postgraduate programmes available in 2020 are listed on page 30 or visit qmul.ac.uk/coursefinder

We know from experience that diversity is a potent catalyst for groundbreaking ideas: in conversations in corridors snatched between lectures; when science and the humanities work together; and between students who grew up around the corner and those from the other side of the world.

The diverse mix of backgrounds, nationalities and cultures will not only challenge you academically, you will make friends and build networks with people from all over the world.

A global educationQueen Mary is in the top 25 most internationally diverse universities in the world, based on the proportion of international staff and students, citations and internationally co-authored papers, (Times Higher Education, 2019).

We deliver postgraduate programmes at our London and international sites and through partnerships with institutions across Europe, Asia and the US.

The London advantage

London is the quintessential melting pot of cultures and nationalities.

After getting my masters degree, I knew I wanted to explore more the research world. Going for a PhD seems the natural continuation of my chemistry studies. London – and Queen Mary in particular – offered the additional opportunity to study in an international and research-focused institution.

My PhD experience at Queen Mary has been challenging and exciting. PhD students get to work in a highly motivational environment.The effort we put in our research projects usually pays off by having our work published in scientific journals or by going to international conferences to show our research. I attended the international co-ordination chemistry conference in Japan and it was an amazing experience!

The best thing about studying here is definitely the multicultural and vibrant environment. If at times doing a PhD can feel stressful and demanding, I know I can always find the support I need from my supervisor and my colleagues here at Queen Mary.

Funding and financial support

Funding for international studentsOur partnerships with external funding organisations such as Chevening, the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission and numerous governments around the world mean that we can support our international students through scholarships and funding.

Postgraduate Masters LoanThe Government’s Postgraduate Masters Loan offers up to £10,906 per programme to English students or EU nationals studying in England. International students are not eligible for this loan.

The loan is available for any full or part-time taught masters programme as well as Masters of Research (MRes), though you won’t normally be eligible if you already hold a masters degree or higher-level qualification. Separate loans are available if you normally live in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland. Loan amounts and criteria differ; for further information visit Student Awards Agency Scotland, Student Finance Wales or Student Finance NI.

Without the loan I wouldn’t have been able to study full time and perhaps not at all. I did get some part-time work, but having the loan meant that I haven’t had to worry about working too many hours and can make studying my primary focus. The ability to pay it back like an undergraduate loan is important too. It means it’s not going to burden me with payments until I can afford those payments.

Postgraduate Doctoral LoanYou can borrow up to £25,000 with the Government’s Postgraduate Doctoral Loan. It is available for any taught or research-based postgraduate doctoral qualification, including part-time and distance learning.

4 Accuracy of information in this prospectusQueen Mary has made reasonable efforts to ensure that the information provided in this prospectus is both helpful and accurate at the time of going to print. However, this information is subject to change over time. For this reason, it is important that you check the website for the most up-to-date information (qmul.ac.uk) or contact us using the details contained within the document.

Terms and conditions1 Rules and regulations The offer of, and acceptance of, a place at Queen Mary is made on the understanding that you undertake to observe the terms and conditions of our Academic Regulations and related policies.

2 Changes to our programmes We will aim to deliver your programme so that it closely matches the way in which it has been described to you by Queen Mary, especially at the point that you accept your offer. However, it is important to understand that there are circumstances in which we may subsequently change aspects of your programme. Our programmes are delivered within a dynamic, academic community by staff who are actively engaged in research. In this context, we might make changes so that our students can learn from the latest academic research. We also value student feedback and provide regular opportunities for our students to comment on the content of their programme. We may therefore alter your programme in response to this dialogue with current students. Other circumstances which can lead to changes include: staff changes, which can lead to new modules being offered, modules being withdrawn, or a change to who teaches the programme; changes made in response to new requirements from external professional or statutory bodies; or changes to the way in which universities are funded, which might lead to changes in the availability of some student services, for example.

In the unlikely event that we discontinue a programme of study, or change it significantly before it begins, we will inform applicants holding an offer of a place at
