At SOAS, you will be surrounded by people who are passionate about their studies and curious about the world we live in. Our staff and students engage in robust debate, develop academic rigour, and gain the skills required to be global citizens - who are capable of making an impact in a changing world.

We offer a range of unique degree combinations, all taught from a global perspective - an approach you won't find anywhere else. We’re also one of the most international universities in the UK, with students from over 130 countries. Our central London campus is home to a global community of students who are all committed to social justice - and making the world a better place.

SOAS graduates go on to a wide range of careers - from NGOs to government, corporate firms to further education - using the in-depth specialist knowledge and critical skills they gained whilst studying with us.

SOAS students are well-respected by employers, who value the global perspective of our teaching. London is home to some of the most influential graduate employers you’ll find in the UK - but our graduates also go on to find careers across the globe, from being a foreign correspondent in the Middle East, to working in international affairs in Canada.

The SOAS Blog is a place for SOAS students, academics and alumni to weigh in on some of the most challenging issues of our time, from human rights and climate change, to vaccine diplomacy, decolonisation, race, language and identity, and freedom of speech. Our students provide regular analysis of the topical news stories of the day. And our alumni give advice on how to pursue careers that make a real difference. Take a look at some of our latest blogs.
