    LSE Sociology Department

    LSE provides a fantastic learning environment for dedicated students that wish to excel academically. The Sociology department in particular provides great support for students and the course covers a breadth of topics and gives you the opportunity to go more in depth in subjects of your particular interest as you progress.

    Being a student from a low economic background makes it difficult as a student in the LSE as London is a very expensive city and the majority of students come from wealthy backgrounds. Despite this, LSE does a good job of mitigating this with the LSE bursary and Accommodation bursary.

    Inspiring work culture

    One of the most notable aspects as a student at LSE is its inspiring work culture. The vast cultural diversity that exists between the university walls are home to driven and motivated individuals from all over the globe. Such a multicultural atmosphere fosters a rich exchange of ideas, enabling students to broaden their horizons. This coupled with the school’s emphasis on collaboration and critical thinking nurtures an intellectually stimulating environment where students are constantly learning from one another and their experiences.
    I have found that the dedication from the career services provides comprehensive and supportive guidance throughout each student’s academic journey. From personalised career counselling sessions to skill-building workshops and networking events loaded with leading industry professionals and alumni, LSE equips its students with the necessary tools to successfully navigate the competitive job market.
    RIghtly renowned for its academic excellence, LSE attracts top-tier faculty members who are not only highly knowledgeable but also passionate about their subjects, creating engaging learning experiences as I have found while studying my course. My lecturers are incredibly accomplished and passionate about their fields of study without which I would not be as immersed in my studies as I am.
    It is important to note that the London School of Economics lives up to its academic prestige which comes with a level of demand from students that are only compatible with immense determination and stellar time management, especially from those who would also like to pursue extracurricular activities. That being said, forming a community with students who have similar interests and aspirations as you is the key to ensuring that you are able to remain on track with your goals.
    Overall I would recommend LSE for those who value and aspire to be in a hardworking environment.

    A World Class Education

    LSE is one of the best universities in the U.K. It welcomes diversity right from inviting students from all around the world to bringing in world-renowned academicians as professors. LSE does all things right. I had a wonderful experience with my classmates where I interacted with them, debated the world’s pressing problems and deliberated on solutions together. The amenities at LSE are student-friendly and convenient. The staff are cordial and ever ready to help. One of the fascinating things about LSE is its campus where there are always exciting activities happening. I had a great experience learning at LSE. As a university, it provides various facilities to guide students’ smooth academic journey. One of the facilities that I frequently use is LSE Life which provided assistance in terms of writing summative and formatives, helping with my essays to align with LSE standards and getting positive feedback. However, I believe that on some grounds, LSE could perform better such as more office hours with professors, better orientation with regards to what LSE expects out of its student, doing more for students’ mental health and above all making students feel part of the LSE community. Overall, my experience at LSE reached far beyond my expectation. I would highly recommend LSE to anyone who dares to excel and come out as a brilliant student.

    Learning environment

    I like that the professors are experienced in their field and have a lot of time for students. I would recommend it to others. However it is a very exclusive university in terms of price, which does not facilitate the best talent.

    One of the best universities for economics!

    The professors at LSE are really qualified and their slides make the students relate to the course content better. The accomodations provided are in the heart of London and are easy to access, with catering provided twice. Socializing is very easy at LSE as it is one of the University of London affiliates and many students from other colleges can be approached easily. The student union has a strong voice and overall the University makes a better person and not just an academic scholar.

    unparalleled standard and quality of teaching

    I am currently completing my masters at LSE, and have learned more in three months than I did for most of my undergraduate. They expect a lot of you, however in return you receive the best quality education. The class sizes are small, lecturers and professors are available weekly and the range of topics and research specialities is vast.

    Choose wisely

    From my personal experience and what I’ve heard from other people your satisfaction at the LSE will greatly vary depending on the department. My own is very small and very proactive in providing us support and contact with teachers and academics, fostering a lovely community which I feel very comfortable in. But many of my friends in larger departments don’t feel this way, and I’ve heard many stories of over-work and loneliness. The corporate environment is also very taxing, even if you have no involvement in it. I would recommend finding creative societies to balance all that out!
