On our main campus which is located between the City of London and the Olympic Games site we house over 2000 students. QM was recently ranked as having the best student accommodation in London.
We have scholarships available across the College but the biggest scheme by far is our International Science and Engineering Excellence Awards which rewards the brightest and the best.

Top right – The Great Hall; recently refurbished and now seats This is where your graduation ceremony will take place should you study at QM.

7. Mile End Campus
Explain that QM is unique as a London institution in having a traditional campus environment. Mention that UCL, King’s, LSE and Imperial for example provide very different social experiences for their students as accommodation is often quite a distance from the academic buildings, students union etc.
Point out key buildings on campus – Student Village, Library, Sports Hall and Gym, the Octagon theatre and People’s Palace. And of course point out the building that you are based in.
Mention that Mile End and Stepney Green tube stations are only 2-3 minutes walk from campus meaning travel to Westfield, the City and the West End is both quick and straightforward.
Sum up by saying that students get the best of both worlds, a traditional campus experience but with the academic, cultural and social experiences of London on their doorstep.
