LSA and UCEM merge
The London School of Architecture (LSA) is pleased to announce the successful completion of its merger with University College of Estate Management (UCEM). As part of this new relationship, the LSA will retain its name and continue to operate with its distinctive identity, now within the wider framework of UCEM.
This collaboration marks an exciting new chapter, with UCEM announcing its name change to University of the Built Environment, from June 2025. The merger will enable both institutions to strengthen their shared commitment to accessible, inclusive, and practice-led education in the built environment. By combining resources, expertise, and networks, they will expand their impact, enhance the student experience, and drive innovation across architectural and built environment education.
Ashley Wheaton, Vice Chancellor of UCEM, said: “This merger reflects our deep commitment to nurturing diverse pathways into the professions that shape our cities and communities. The LSA’s pioneering model aligns powerfully with our mission, and we are excited about the future as we work together to be the centre of excellence for built environment education.”
Lucy Carmichael, Chair of the LSA Board, said: “Bringing together UCEM’s long-standing expertise in built environment disciplines and the LSA’s innovative model of architectural education creates new possibilities for LSA students, faculty and the Practice Network, and will drive positive environmental and social change through professional education.”
In April, UCEM revalidated the LSA’s Part 2 MArch in Designing Architecture, with the degree continuing to be accredited by the ARB and validated by RIBA. From Monday 12 May, the application process will resume, and prospective students will be informed of their next steps.
