We can't wait to welcome you to campus in September!
Welcome Week is a week full of events before teaching starts to help you meet other students, get to know your course leaders and get settled into student life.
Check back here for the Welcome Week timetables for new students in the School of Social Sciences.
We are delighted that you've chosen to join the School of Social Sciences at Kent and look forward to welcoming you this September. By studying the social sciences, you'll explore the people, institutions and societies that shape our world while developing the analytical, research and communication skills that are highly valued across a wide range of careers.
You'll be part of a supportive and inspiring community where our expert staff will encourage you to think critically, challenge assumptions and engage with real-world issues from a variety of perspectives.
Starting university is an exciting new chapter, and we encourage you to make the most of every opportunity. Explore your interests, connect with fellow students, and get involved in the events, societies and activities that make Kent such a vibrant place to study. We wish you a wonderful summer and can't wait to welcome you to the School of Social Sciences and support you throughout your journey with us.
- Balihar Sanghera, Head of School for the School of Social Sciences
