倫敦衛生與熱帶醫學院(London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine,縮寫:LSHTM)是一所位於英國倫敦的研究型大學,研究領域集中在公共健康和熱帶醫學上,1899年由萬巴德創建,目前為倫敦大學聯邦的成員機構之一,以招收碩士生跟博士生為主,不招收學士生。
2023/24学年预算为2.557億英镑,其中0.197亿英镑來自贊助。該校在公共健康領域長期享有極高的國際聲譽,但過去未加入世界的綜合性大學排名,主因是該校為專職於醫學的研究型機構,且長年無招收大學部學生,而根據 2016 US News Education Global Universities Ranking 與 2015 CWTS Leiden Ranking,倫敦衛生與熱帶醫學院在公共衛生醫學領域中,與哈佛大學以及約翰霍普金斯醫學院,角逐全球前三名,為英國及整個歐洲社會中,公衛暨醫學領域裡最頂尖的學校,並與國際許多非營利組織有著密切合作的夥伴關係。
