Two member institutions of the UCLPartners Academic Health Science Centre (AHSC) have been ranked 1 and 2 in the UK for public health, and 3 and 7 globally.
London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) has been ranked 1st in the UK and 3rd globally, and UCL have been ranked number 2nd in the UK and 7th in the world in the rankings for public health by ShanghaiRanking’s Global Ranking of Academic Subjects 2020.
