King’s College London is dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, learning and understanding in the service of global society. Through strong partnerships and research and teaching excellence, King’s is recognised as a thought-leader on interdisciplinary themes of global significance. King’s provides an internationalised curriculum and student experience which creates global citizens connected to international networks and employable anywhere in the world. King’s International Strategy to 2020 sets out the university’s vision for taking advantage of the overwhelmingly positive impact thinking globally has on our students, our staff, our research and the world at large. King’s International Strategy has been designed to integrate seamlessly into the university’s wider strategy and ethos and is underpinned by five strategic priorities:
Research is core to King’s, what we do, what we care about and how we educate. It is how we channel our creativity to further knowledge and understanding, challenge convention and deliver impact. Our vision is to deliver research to inform and innovate. By providing the best environment, support and networks for our community, from postgraduate research students to senior academics, we will deliver research excellence. The university's Sustainability Champions are working on campus and in our residences to make King's a more sustainable working environment; reducing its social and environmental impacts. The programme has proven to be crucial in helping the Sustainability Team embed sustainability and efficiency throughout the university and also brings together King's staff and students from the different campuses, departments and faculties, empowering them to make positive changes within and beyond their own work environments. King’s is committed to delivering at the highest level to enable excellent research. We have focused our efforts around five pillars:
Created by colleagues, students, alumni and friends, our vision shapes our combined ambitions in all areas of university life – many of which we’re already on the way to achieving – and takes us to our 200th anniversary. The Strategic Vision is the long-term narrative that guides all activities at King’s. It is enduring, ambitious and inspiring and sets the tone for what we do and how we do it. Our vision is to make the world a better place. Since our foundation in 1829, our students and staff have dedicated themselves in the service of society. Our Strategic Vision, launched in January 2017 takes us to our 200th anniversary in 2029 and builds upon our history of making a full contribution to society. We will continue to focus on world-leading education, research and service and will have an increasingly proactive role to play in a more interconnected, complex world. We will continue to expand the huge contribution King’s makes to London and through that a national contribution within the UK, and beyond that to an international community that serves the world.

Kings College ranks very high for biochemistry - on a par with UCL and Imperial. The only critical observation is that it does not offer any part time courses, even though its course is modular.

Just did an open day here, on the upside it made me sure on what to choose as my firm and insurance choices. As you may gather from my rating this was not one of them. When asking one of the lecturers about where students usually got jobs to help pay for the cost of living in London he looked down on me and said "None of our students do that". This staff member either doesn't know his students well or the college doesn't encourage diversity.

One of the best Physics departments in London.
Plenty of opportunities to see lecturers outside your degree area.
I did my Physics degree here and was able to learn lots of computer programming with optional modules and free evening classes.

Don't believe the hype. There is a reason this university's reputation is going down. None of the staff members care about the college, or the student experience. I have literally heard them say it.
