This week we were excited to welcome our new undergraduate, MSc and research students to the Department.

With over seven hundred and fifty students and a large academic faculty, the Department is not only one of the largest academic units at the LSE but a leading centre in political science. We see our students as active members of this research community, and it’s inspiring to hear why you’ve chosen to join the Department and contribute to the global debate in the social sciences.

We’ve had a fantastic few days meeting you all at the inductions, receptions and workshops. Thanks to everyone kind enough to pose for @LSEGovernment twitter pictures. Above are some of the photos we’ve posted this week – if you’d like to share your own get in touch.

Welcome to the Department of Government!
