Academic Programs and Departments:
At King’s Business School, part of KCL University, there are different paths you can choose from. These include Business Management, International Management, Accounting, and Economics. Depending on your preference, you can go into a specific direction or opt for a more open course like mine—Business Management. In this course, each year offers various options ranging from marketing to accounting and economics. The main difference is in years 2 and 3, where each course focuses more on that specific area. I found my course really useful since it covered different subjects in the first year, making it easy for those without prior business studies experience. The course content stays current and the selected readings are up-to-date, always with the latest editions of books and academic material.
Faculty and Teaching:
The teaching staff is great and offers plenty of chances for feedback during office hours.
Class Size:
Classes at KBS happen at places like the Strand Building and Bush House across multiple campuses. Class sizes vary, from large auditoriums for mandatory modules, like Strategic Management in year 2, to smaller ones for elective courses.
Campus Facilities:
The university provides access to fantastic libraries with various study spaces, discussion rooms for group projects, and quiet areas. The Maughan Library stands out for its beauty. There’s also an online library with an extensive collection of books and articles, which is really helpful for research.
Extracurricular Activities:
There’s a wide range of student clubs to join. Before the academic year starts, a fair is held where you can meet club members and decide which ones to join. These clubs cover various interests from business to sports, hobbies, medicine, science, and cultural groups that can be really comforting for international students.
Campus Location:
The campus is conveniently located, close to several tube lines like District in Temple, and Northern and Bakerloo lines in Charing Cross. Plus, Covent Garden is nearby with lots of eating places, many offering student discounts through Student Beans or UNiDAYS.

I love studying at kings college London, the course MSc International Management is very interactive and provides the students with a lot of practical learning, readying them for real world jobs.

At first, I didn’t quite enjoy the programme as our first year (2021 school year) was done mostly remotely, for example our lectures were online while many other courses had in-person lectures. It made it hard to fully integrate ourselves within the university, but now that our lectures are in person, it has been easier to be part of the community and participate in the many opportunities that our university offers to students. It has been great to take part in many different societies as well and play a larger presence in our university’s student body.

It’s been a really positive experience for me at King’s college. The campus is stunning, and the housing is lovely. Pretty good food is served. Academics are typically strong, despite the fact that professors’ teaching abilities can vary greatly.

I have been attending King’s for a few months, and so far the social life and the education received have been amazing. The societies are constantly holding events so meeting friends is quick and easy, and with the variety of societies it is very likely you will find something to your liking. Moreover, lecturers are attentive and do their best to accomodate your questions and concerns, making this a well-rounded university experience so far in terms of social life and education.

KCL has the resources, status and researchers of a world-class university while combining a highly diverse and international student body. Anyone can find their niche of interest and friends while developing knowledge, and contacts and making the most of life-changing opportunities. Excellent exchange programs, facilities, and extra-curricular activities. Amazing people.

I especially like the course design. The content of each lesson was very interesting. The college encourages auditing, and the elective classes in one college can be mixed, and the content is very rich, so you can meet students from different majors.
School life is very rich, there are various cultural activities. The environment is very diverse and international, and there are many opportunities. My career path is very clear, but it is really hard to find a job abroad.

I’m loving being in London for my MA. The KCL Arts & Cultural Management MA is not nearly as much work as I anticipated, which leaves room for part-time work as well as time to explore the city and travel around London. I chose KCL for the international recognition of the name and the connections of a top-tier university both in England and abroad. The facilities are beautiful and the buildings are top-notch. The coursework is significantly less than I thought, though it is unclear if this is a product of transitioning out of blended learning and into full time in person teaching or if the course has always been set up with this level of rigor. While course load is dependent on personal opinion as well as classes, I’m still happy to be at KCL and am enjoying the additional free time to grow as a young adult whilst studying my Masters.

King’s College London is located in Strand, central London. Theatres, museums and galleries are just around the corner. After lectures and seminars, it was a great experience to dive into the cultural centre of the UK, immersing yourself in the global culture.

In my opinion, the academics at King’s College London are highly challenging and interactive and help students develop many skills. Even the professors are highly qualified. However, I think the university lacks a community feel, perhaps because there is no campus life and accessing student services can prove to be quite difficult.
