Additional info
During the open day, we’ll have lecturers and academics across all subject areas on hand to answer any questions you may have. It’s a great way to learn more about what you might study during your time at SOAS.
Our team of Student Ambassadors will be available throughout the day if you want to chat about what life at SOAS is really like. They’re the best people to talk to if you want first-hand experience from people studying and living at SOAS.
During the day we’ll be hosting tours of our Central London campus. Our Student Ambassadors will take you around campus, showing you everything including the SOAS Library, our very own on-site gallery The Brunei Gallery, our Students’ Union and so much more.
We’ll have a number of subject talks taking place throughout the day. As well as talking to lecturers, these talks are another great way to find out more about the course you’re thinking of studying.
Along with lecturers and current students, we’ll have student support and recruitment staff available to answer further questions you may have. They’ll be able to cover accommodation, well-being, finance, accessibility, and more.
SOAS programmes are taught by respected specialists engaged in fieldwork and research, which influences both government policy and the lives of individuals across the globe.
SOAS students are encouraged to develop a truly global outlook, and taking subjects such as Law, Development Studies, Politics, Economics and Religious Studies allow SOAS students to shape current thinking about the economic, political, cultural, security and religious challenges in society.
All SOAS courses provide students with an understanding of complex contemporary issues and knowledge of non-Western theories.
SOAS’ specialism in Africa, Asia and the Middle East offers students the chance to study over 50 non-European languages or regionally focused courses within traditional academic disciplines.
Small group teaching remains an important feature of study at SOAS – its student-staff ratio (11:1) is one of the best in the UK.
A SOAS student is typically passionate about their subject; opts to learn a second language; loves to learn, to travel, to be surprised; and is interested and engaged with the world around them.
