New York University has opened an affiliated foreign study centre in London for undergraduates on pre-medicine and other science courses.

The private NYU plans to send more than 100 undergraduates to the centre each year, though numbers are expected to treble over the next few years.

David Hillel-Ruben, former director of the London School of Jewish Studies, is director of the London programme for NYU.
