Overview

SOAS provides a diverse, multicultural and vibrant campus in the heart of London, one of the best student cities in the world. Our campus is located on a single site just a short walk away from the British Museum, British Library, Senate House Library as well as the entertainment hotspots of Camden and Soho.

The SOAS Library houses over 1.3 million volumes, including manuscripts, archives and digital collections - and it’s ever-expanding. It’s one of the UK’s five National Research Libraries in the UK, and attracts scholars from across the globe.

We also have our own exhibition space, right on campus - the Brunei Gallery hosts exciting events and exhibitions throughout the year, presenting stunning artwork that reflects the subjects and regions being studied at SOAS.

Our thriving Students’ Union (SU) is known throughout SOAS and Bloomsbury as the place to be - tune in to SOAS radio, head to the SU Bar, or join one of the many societies on offer, and really get stuck into life at SOAS.

The Student Hub, part of a recent 40 million development programme, is situated in the Paul Webley Wing of Senate House - a historic Grade II listed building that has revolutionised the student experience.
