Internationally renowned for their creative and innovative approach to teaching and research, Goldsmiths offers undergraduate, postgraduate, teacher training and return-to-study opportunities in subjects covering the arts, social sciences, humanities and computing.

Goldsmiths has been part of the University of London for over 100 years, and are ranked 9th in the UK for world-leading 4* research (Research Assessment Exercise 2008). Their academic excellence is illustrated in their membership of the 1994 Group, which brings together a select number of research-focused universities.

The unique academic approach of Goldsmiths comes from the interaction of 15 academic departments, together with a number of smaller centres and units. The college is committed to avant-garde, radical thinking, which creates an environment that encourages freedom of thought and expression. Many of the former students have become leaders and innovators in their chosen fields – they include Antony Gormley, Mary Quant, Damien Hirst, Bridget Riley, Sam Taylor-Wood, Graham Coxon and Malcolm McLaren.

Goldsmiths have a strong tradition in working with the local community to broaden access to higher education and lifelong learning, and the Department of Professional and Community Education (PACE) continues this commitment.

Goldsmiths is located in New Cross, South East London. Vibrant, urban and with great transport connections to Central London, it’s an ideal base for experiencing and enjoying the capital – one of the most exciting cities in the world.
