ABOUT US

The range of departments highlights the variety of courses on offer within the school, and we are proud to work collaboratively with our NHS partners to look at new ways of working. Due to this, the school is one of the leading organisations for developing courses that lead to new roles in healthcare, including the nursing associate role and deployment. The simulation facilities are currently undergoing a redesign and therefore are recruiting interpersonal staff who are registered healthcare professionals. This will enable the school to develop an interpersonal team to enable highly effective simulation and skills teaching, which prepares students for the interpersonal roles they will be embarking on.
At UEL, we work with several local leading trust partners who offer innovative placement experiences that span both physical and mental wealth. The professional programmes at UEL thrive on the supportive partnership relationship with practice partners across the communities of East London and serves to support the health and social care needs of the local population. As well as local partners, UEL has a close relationship with Health Education England and works with the local strategic workforce boards to ensure that programmes at UEL are representative of local workforce needs.
