Stephen Pinker Interview

NCH is an independent university-level college based in the heart of London where quick mind meets the inspiration they deserve.

Close contact with the likes of Professor A C Grayling, Professor Sir Partha Dasgupta, Professor Rebecca Goldstein, Professor Sir Christopher Ricks and Dr Suzannah Lipscomb will demand nothing less than the quickest minds, minds that will be rewarded and nourished by smaller tuition groups, hundreds of contact hours and an inspiring location in the heart of cultural and academic London. 

More immersive degree programmes in Economics, English, History, Law, Philosophy, and Politics & International Relations, combine with complementary modules from another degree course or Art History, or Classical Studies, plus Applied Ethics, Logic & Critical Thinking, and Science Literacy. All of this runs alongside a three-year professional development programme.
