The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) is a world-leading university, unique in its dedication to the social sciences. Named ‘University of the Year 2025’ by The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide, it is also ranked the UK’s top university.
For 130 years, pioneering LSE research has helped society to understand the most important global problems and how to solve them. 42 world leaders and 20 Nobel Prize winners have studied or taught at LSE, and it is perhaps the most international university in the world, with 234,000 alumni across the globe and 146 countries represented in our student body.
Our President and Vice Chancellor, Professor Larry Kramer, has set out his ambition for LSE to use our convening power to bring the world together, developing and disseminating solutions for the betterment of society to five vital modern challenges: popular government, political economy, sustainability, inequality, and growth of new technologies.
