The London
School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) is one of the
Colleges of the University of London and a world-leading social
science institution. Academics from LSE provide the academic
direction for this programme.
Since its
foundation in 1895, LSE has been regarded as an international
centre of academic excellence and innovation in the social
sciences. Its teaching and research is recognised worldwide as a
benchmark of quality.
The School’s
academic profile spans the broad range of social sciences –
disciplines that reflect how we interact with one another and
with society. LSE is an institution renowned for focusing on
‘real world’ issues. Current areas of research and expertise
include globalisation, human rights, risk and business
management, new communications technologies, urban and regional
policies, and new forms of governance.
LSE alumni and
former staff include 14 Nobel prize winners and 30 past or
present heads of state. LSE academics come from all over the
world and from many social, educational and ethnic backgrounds.
They are in constant demand as commentators and analysts in the
media, act as advisors to governments, and are seconded to
national and international organisations.
