Student review [#61230] for Politics
at King's College London

As I embark on the final leg of my journey as a Politics student at King’s College London, I find myself compelled to share the extraordinary events that have moulded my academic career.

What distinguishes King’s is its unrelenting dedication to offering a complete and active political education. In my first year, I was introduced to the world of data analysis using STATA, a core ability that has since proved essential to my academic endeavours. This early immersion set the tone for a programme that constantly challenges and enhances pupils’ analytical abilities.

Exploration of game theory, a discipline that brings theoretical concepts to life and provides a unique perspective on political decision-making, has proven equally compelling. This multidisciplinary approach, along with extensive study of political theory and international relations, has resulted in a comprehensive grasp of the complex factors that drive global politics.

King’s strength resides not just in its curriculum, but also in the great teachers who act as guiding lights along this academic journey. Their enthusiasm for teaching and commitment to student development is obvious in every lecture, seminar and office hours. 

Furthermore, King’s fosters an open and lively atmosphere that fosters both scholastic endeavours and personal growth. The Strand campus, with its rich history, provides an inspirational setting for intellectual inquiry.

If I were to sum up my feelings about King’s College London, it would be one of tremendous gratitude for the transforming experience it has provided me. The active curriculum, committed teachers, and fascinating environment not only provided me with a solid foundation in politics and political economy but also fostered in me a strong desire to learn more about this subject.

I definitely recommend King’s to any students looking for a dynamic and loving academic atmosphere. The range and depth of education available here, together with the rich history and welcoming community, distinguishes it as a standout institution in the field of higher education.
