IOE, University College London Faculty of Education and Society

IOE is UCL’s Faculty of Education and Society. From legacy to innovation, we have been shaping policy and helping government, organisations and individuals to navigate a radically changing society for the last 120 years.

Working across education, culture, psychology and social science, we create lasting and evolving change in a real-world context. We embrace cross-pollination, collaboration and excellence to create a future that is inclusive and just. We do this through world-leading education, research and enterprise, and have been ranked number one for education worldwide every year since 2014 in the QS World University Rankings.

We merged with UCL in December 2014, and have grown our community to more than 8,000 students, 800 staff and hundreds of thousands of alumni who push the boundaries of knowledge and lead challenging conversations.

We were previously known as the UCL Institute of Education.
