UCL is the fifth best university in the country, according to The Times Good University Guide.
 
Despite moving up two places from last year’s rankings, we were pipped to first place by Oxford, Cambridge, LSE and Imperial.
 
But no one did better for student to staff teaching ratio than UCL – we have an academic for every 9.7 students.
 
Despite having a relatively large student base, UCL came top of the staff ratio because it is far and away the largest Academic employer in the country.
 
The University has over 4000 academic staff and researchers as well as 648 professors.
 
Many are members of other leading academic institutions. There are currently 55 Fellows of the British Academy, 46 Fellows of the Royal Society,  10 Fellows of the Royal Academy of Engineeringand 99 Fellows of the Academy of Medical Sciences.
 
The good news for Buzz readers doesn’t stop there however. London graduates earn on average 25% more than graduates from other areas of the country.
