About us

The Centre for Languages & International Education is a centre of excellence for teaching and learning at Institute of Education (IOE) specialising in academic communication, pedagogy and student support from Pre-degree up to Doctoral level across all UCL Faculties. At pre-undergraduate and pre-graduate level, in close liaison with UCL Faculties, CLIE develops international students’ academic, linguistic and study skills across a portfolio of courses to enable successful academic transition between diverse education systems. CLIE also offers a range of enterprise activities, for example overseas consultancies, partnerships, specialist summer courses and CPD evening courses. CLIE is BALEAP (British Association of Lecturers in English for Academic Purposes) accredited.
