City of London Study in London: a truly international experience “Nowhere in the world can rival London as a place to study. It has a combination of academic excellence, a rich artistic and cultural heritage and is positioned at the centre of global business. With students from 200 countries, London truly is a world in one city. No wonder there are more international students in London than in any other city in the world.” Boris Johnson, Mayor of London Study in London Guide Business and finance London has the largest economy of any city in Europe and alongside New York is one of the biggest financial centres in the world. The capital has also been voted the ‘best city for business’ in Europe for 20 years in a row. As a UEA London student you will be based on the edge of London’s thriving financial district – an area often referred to as ‘the City’ or ‘Square Mile’ which is home to many of the UK’s biggest banks and businesses. Over 300,000 people work in the ‘Square Mile’ each day, and its workforce is one of the most skilled and highly paid in the world. Media London is an international media hub, home to the BBC, The Financial Times, The Economist, Reuters and many other global media organisations. History London is home to four world heritage sites and a host of the world’s most famous tourist attractions, including Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. It is also the second most visited city in the world by tourists. Culture London has hundreds of museums, galleries and music venues including the world-famous British Museum, Tate Modern and Royal Albert Hall. In every field of the arts London offers spectacular standards and variety. Architecture London has a dazzling array of architectural styles spanning different eras. From UEA London you are within walking distance from some of London’s most famous landmarks including St. Paul’s Cathedral, Tower Bridge and The Gherkin. Sport In 2012 London will host the Olympics for the third time, more than any other city in modern Olympic history. London is also famous for its five premier league football teams, the Wimbledon Tennis Championships, Twickenham (the home of England rugby), Lords (the home of cricket) and Wembley Stadium.

The UK’s most popular study destination Cuisine Transport Regarded by many as the world’s most international city, London offers the best in world cuisine. With food from most cultures available and options to cover all tastes and budgets. Shopping World famous areas such as Oxford Street, Bond Street and Covent Garden offer a huge range of international brands and designer boutiques. Near to UEA London you will find the delightful Spitalfields Market and Brick Lane, which offer independent boutique shops and fascinating market stalls. Multi-cultural More than 300 different languages are spoken in the city and one in four Londoners was born outside the UK. Studying in London will give you the chance to understand a broad range of cultures. London is well connected with a huge number of destinations worldwide and has five international airports including Heathrow, which carries more international passengers than any other airport in the world. In addition UEA London is a just short tube ride from St. Pancras International, where you can catch a train to Paris or Brussels with ease. Climate London has a temperate climate, meaning it doesn’t get too cold in winter or too hot in summer. The city is relatively dry too, with less annual rainfall than cities such as New York and Paris and a similar amount to Jerusalem and San Francisco. You get to know about a lot more interesting things when you live here. A lot of tourists come to London and they only know about attractions like Big Ben and that kind of stuff. I prefer to go to the markets like Spitalfields, Brick Lane, which are very near to the campus. I think it’s quite fun to go to the markets because they sell different things like vintage clothes, and they also sell food from other countries.
