Founded in 2012, with the aim of providing the highest quality of education in the humanities and social sciences, New College of the Humanities has established itself as a prestigious, university-level college based in the heart of London. Small by design, we offer a unique and broad liberal arts-inspired curriculum with highly personalised teaching, including our gold standard one-to-one tutorial system.
Since moving into our Bloomsbury home and welcoming our first students in September 2012, the College has evolved considerably. You’ll see some of our critical milestones in our timeline.
The College is part of Northeastern University’s global network. Northeastern is a highly ranked US teaching and research institution based in Boston, with campuses in Charlotte, Seattle, Silicon Valley, Toronto and Vancouver. Becoming part of the Northeastern University network opens up enormous opportunities for NCH students and graduates, including the possibility of studying in the US.
Furthermore, the College benefits from financial backing and educational expertise of Northeastern, widely viewed as the world’s leader in experiential learning, which, in recent years, has gained significant international prestige.
NCH offers one of the best staff-to-student ratios in UK higher education, and our experienced and respected faculty are passionate about teaching and research. Teaching through small seminars and lectures and our unique one-to-one tutorials gives our students unique opportunities to explore the curriculum in-depth, at a level of engagement with other students, tutors and lecturers that is second to none. Our courses are challenging and enriching, and our students are rewarded with extra personal development and enhanced skills.
Our world-class Visiting Professoriate of professors includes luminaries such as Simon Blackburn, Sir Partha Dasgupta, Richard Dawkins, Daniel C Dennett, A C Grayling, Steven Pinker, Sir Christopher Ricks, and Adrian Zuckerman, giving our students access to some of the world’s greatest thinkers that is unparalleled at undergraduate and master’s level.
