The London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine is a world-leading centre for research and postgraduate education in public and global health.

Our mission is to improve health and health equity in the UK and worldwide; working in partnership to achieve excellence in public and global health research, education and translation of knowledge into policy and practice. Founded in 1899 by Sir Patrick Manson, the School has expanded in recent years at its two main sites on Keppel Street and Tavistock Place. The School’s multidisciplinary expertise includes clinicians, epidemiologists, statisticians, social scientists, molecular biologists and immunologists, and we work with partners worldwide to support the development of teaching and research capacity. Research income has grown to over £85 million per year from national and international funding sources including the UK government, the European Commission, the Wellcome Trust and philanthropic sources. Education programmes have grown to more than 1,000 London-based Master’s and Research students, 2,900 studying Master’s by distance learning and 1,000 on short courses and continuous professional development. We have also launched a series of free online courses, and more than 15,000 people registered on the first of these, Ebola in context. Our staff, students and alumni work in more than 150 countries in government, academia, international agencies and health services. The School is highly ranked in various university league tables. It was named the world’s leading research-focused graduate school in the Times Higher Education World Rankings. In 2014, it was ranked in the top 10 universities in the world for citation rate by the new EU-supported U-Multirank database, and third in the world for social science and public health in the US News Best Global Universities Ranking. According to the results of the UK government's Research Excellence Framework, published in 2014, the School was ranked second overall (after the Institute for Cancer Research) on the key measure of impact. In 2015, the School was ranked top in Europe for impact by the Leiden Ranking. The School is a member of the M8 Alliance of Academic Health Centers, Universities and National Academies, a grouping of organisations committed to improving global health.
