Most degrees ask you to specialise before you know what the world actually needs from you. At LIS, you don’t choose just one subject: you learn to connect ideas and methods across the arts, sciences and humanities, alongside real work experience, to build the skills employers are actually looking for.
For those who want more from a degree, more knowledge, more skills, more real-world experience, explore the BASc below.

See the modules, meet the faculty, and find out exactly how the internships work.
Built for the world you're about to enter
89% of BASc graduates are in employment or further study within 15 months, working across sectors from business and consulting to research, sustainability and tech. In your first two years, LIS brokers an internship built around your interests, a chance to try something new or go deeper into what you already know you want. You leave with a portfolio of real work, not just a transcript.
One lens is never enough
Traditional degrees train you to think in a single subject. The BaSc doesn’t. Alongside world-class faculty from Harvard, LSE, UCL and beyond, you’ll draw on subjects like economics, philosophy, psychology and neuroscience, and methods like coding, ethnography, systems thinking, design methods and data science, so you can see a problem from every single it has.
A small cohort, built on purpose
You'll study with a 13:1 student to faculty ratio, in classrooms small enough for real debate. Our support team isn't an afterthought. It's central to how you learn. Our campus is Whitechapel, in the heart of London, so your classroom extends into a network of organisations across the city, working on live problems from day one.

Tackle real-world problems
Using practical methods, from coding and data science to ethnography.

Serious about academics.
Serious about ability too.
This is a demanding degree. You're working with real organisations on real problems from week one, and that takes intellectual rigour and the ability to keep up as those problems shift. That's why we ask for A*AA at A Level (ABB for contextual offers).
But we know grades don't always tell the full story. If yours don't reflect what you're capable of, and you think this is your degree, let's talk. Everyone on track for A*AA goes straight to a single Mindset interview. Everyone else takes an Academic interview alongside it, working through a real problem with our faculty, so you can show us how you think rather than have it inferred from a transcript.
Predicted A*AA?
On track for A*AA at A Level (ABB for contextual offers), and the right subjects in your exams? That's strong academic evidence on its own. You'll go straight to a single Mindset interview with senior LIS staff.
Grades don't tell the full story?
You'll take two interviews instead: an Academic interview, working through a real problem with faculty, and the Mindset interview with senior staff.
