Student stories
After applying to the programme and being made a conditional offer, my excitement was tempered by the reality that I may not be able to take up the offer without the necessary funds - so it was a huge honour to receive both the LSE Master's Award and the Desmond G Wiltshaw Scholarship

LSE was founded in 1895 to create and share knowledge addressing major social challenges and to shape a better world. The School works through research, education, creative intellectual debate and public engagement. Our mission is to advance knowledge in social science and a range of related fields so as to inform public policy, economic decision-making, and social welfare both nationally and globally. This means nurturing creative thought and intellectual exploration and educating students from all backgrounds and around the world to be critical thinkers and skilled professionals who work for the betterment of society.
LSE’s mission charges the School with making a positive difference to the world through bringing research-based knowledge to public problems and educating students with the capacity to lead in solving those problems. Our ambition is to excel in every aspect of this mission. Through our teaching, our research, and the work of our alumni we will make the effort ‘to know the causes of things’ a force for good. Right now, in the midst of rapid change in higher education, a crucial priority is to ensure that our students have the benefit of great teaching and a rewarding educational experience. We are at work on this in all we do, from building new state of the art classrooms to improving student support systems and making sure excellence in teaching is rewarded. Outstanding education must be as central to LSE as brilliant research and exciting public engagement.
The LSE’s future depends on enhancing our quality, our innovation, and our intellectual distinctiveness as a leading institution for social science. At LSE social science is central to education and research in public policy and law; in management, accounting and finance; in international development and social policy. It is also the focus of pathbreaking research. To sustain this in the midst of change and challenges, we pursue a strategy that builds on the School’s core identity: the public mission and openness inaugurated by its founders, its remarkably global character, and its commitment to making knowledge matter in practical affairs.
