Undergraduate teaching in City's Cass Business School is rated first in London and third in the UK by The Guardian University Guide 2009/10. The University boosted its legal provision by incorporating the Inns of Court School of Law to become the City Law School, which is one of London's major law schools.

City University London's Mission Statement

City University London is a community of enquiry which includes all those - students, academic and professional staff - engaged in the learning activities we offer. Our community is characterised by honesty, openness, respect and a pride in diversity. We rejoice in being a diverse community, drawn from over 160 countries. We believe that all ideas, theories and beliefs are proper subjects for rigorous and systematic challenge. We expect to generate and consider ideas and analyses that either support or challenge accepted wisdom. Indeed such enquiry is one of the ways that we best fulfil the University's motto to serve mankind. This freedom to enquire should, however, be tempered by an understanding of the impact of enquiry on others.
