SOAS, University of London (The School of Oriental and African Studies)

I happily give to SOAS, my two courses and my lecturers my warmest recommendation.

...this area of study will enable me to equip myself with critical knowledge and skill...

I chose SOAS because it is the only place in London where I could gain a broad knowledge of Music in the Middle East.

The insight provided, knowledge delivered and understanding transmitted during lectures, seminars and conferences at SOAS is impressive and requires real personal involvement in the topics.

CeFiMS offered me a truly unique experience of top class education combined with an opportunity to achieve my full potential…

The knowledge gained has helped me by improving both the skills and quality of my work…

Studying for my MA in Taiwan Studies at SOAS was a wonderful experience

SOAS attracts such high calibre students with international backgrounds, I have not only enjoyed socialising with my classmates, but have learnt much from them as well.

The most lucrative resource has been the SOAS library which has an excellent South Asia collection

SOAS, for me, means a total personal advancement, not merely vocational.

The past two years at SOAS have been most challenging and stimulating at the same time.

There is absolutely no question that I would recommend SOAS to anyone interested in a hybrid finance and law master's program. It's a place like no other, and I'd be lying if I said I hadn't considered going back for another course. Hopefully one day…

… it was one of the best decisions that I ever took to supplement my engineering background by studying and completing the MSc Finance…

The MA year was probably one of the most life-changing experiences in my life, and it was paramount in my decision to continue my studies towards an academic career.

If you are interested in a truly global history, then SOAS is the place to study.

SOAS is the ultimate place for intellectual thinking about the world with special attention to cultural and political issues.

SOAS is a truly great institution that provides a stimulating learning environment with extensive resources and outstanding teaching staff.

SOAS was the ideal place for me to study cross-Strait relations

SOAS came to my mind naturally as it is well-known for its regional specialization and individual staff’s strength on gender studies.

I was drawn to the university’s outstanding reputation in my area of interest (the Middle East, particularly Iran) as well as the availability of postgraduate programmes that could complement a career in journalism.

SEA is one of not many departments in the world where Thai cinema has been intensively taught and studied.

SOAS seemed the natural place to come, not only because of its fantastic location in the heart of London, but also because of its specialist focus and its diverse student body.

SOAS is a unique university in which to study management and its environment in Japan

The flexibility of the department to customize my classes was extremely appreciated so I could focus on the gendered component of globalisation.
