As a member of the first undergraduate cohort at the London Interdisciplinary School, which began in 2021, I have just completed my studies in June 2024. This journey has been nothing short of transformative. While there were some challenges along the way, which is natural for any new institution, the unwavering support from the faculty and staff made all the difference. Their dedication to our success was reflected in the exceptional amount of time and access they provided, something truly rare in both academia and the professional world. The blend of academic learning with real-world applications has fueled my excitement for the workforce, and I feel fully prepared to take on my next steps with confidence thanks to LIS.

The teaching at LIS is truly exceptional, characterized by a seminar-style approach that replaces traditional lectures with dynamic, interactive sessions. This format allows for in-depth exploration of ideas in small groups, fostering a collaborative environment where learning from peers is as valuable as learning from the instructors. The ability to engage in meaningful discussions and challenge each other’s perspectives has been incredibly enriching, making the educational experience at LIS not just about absorbing knowledge, but about actively shaping it together.
