ABOUT US

Transforming Lives Through Excellent Education_

London Met is an extraordinary institution. Equity and social inclusion have
always been our driving principles, and it's what makes the University so
unique. Our organisation is distinctive, both in its eclectic and diverse
community of students and staff, and also for its historical role in serving
some of London's most deprived boroughs. Everything we do is
underpinned by our philosophy that an individual should have the
opportunity to transform their life through the power of education.

Equipping our students with the tools for their future is at the heart of our
academic offering. We pride ourselves on providing our students with
access to a wealth of opportunities and professions. Our graduates benefit
personally, but also contribute their unique perspectives to society, culture,
public service and the economy in all areas of London, the UK and around
the world.
The School of Human Sciences brings together the University's science
based health related provision and the essential scientific disciplines
that underpin this provision. Our dietetics courses are approved by the
related to medicine. We focus on activities that consider the factors
that influence human health and wellbeing, taking a holistic approach to
individual and community wellbeing.
