I do not have any complaints from the course. Was a bit disappointed with the teacher union strikes but that's really about it when it comes to teaching. Professors are helpful, the staff is kind and students are given great flexibility and considerations for unforeseen personal problems or mental health issues. Administration could've been better at times, in terms of reviewing how exams are taken and grades delivered, but overall nothing to major. The course goes into great depth of politics, policy and economics and gives students the opportunity to interact with some of the sharpest minds in academia through guest lectures and professors' with a wealth of experience. read more

I have degrees from three US schools and came to KCL for a Ph.D. This is by far the worst run school I have ever attended. As an organization, it is incompetent; they deliver a sub-standard educational experience. The staff goes on strike every year. The only positive is that it is a cheap and easy place to get a degree in London. If you want a top tier educational experience, go to LSE or a school in the US. read more
