Lead College

The School of Oriental and African Studies

CeFiMS - The Centre for Financial & Management Studies, is an established Postgraduate research and teaching department for finance, management and related subjects at SOAS, The School of Oriental and African Studies, in the University of London. 

The School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) is unique. It is the only higher education institution in the UK specialising in the study of Asia and Africa. With more than 200 academics dedicated to research and teaching in these areas, it is now the world's largest institution of its kind. It has a full range of humanities and social science departments as well as ones specialising in language and culture. The School's ranking in the most recent independent assessment of the quality of research activities in UK universities puts us amongst the top research universities in the country. The quality of research is matched by a strong commitment to the teaching of our undergraduates. At SOAS, students are guided by scholars who are at the forefront of their fields.

At the start of a new millennium the University is more conscious than ever that the University live in a world seemingly made small by the wonders of technology and through the development of a global economy. This has led, perhaps, to a greater awareness of the need to understand the world from a range of perspectives and has created a demand for people with specialist knowledge and skills needed for careers in an increasingly international environment.

The University's aim is to provide an excellent training in the student's chosen subject or discipline; in addition the University help to equip you with a range of skills - personal, cognitive and technological - essential for the graduate of the 21st century.

The School's library is the national resource for the study of Asia and Africa. With over 850,000 volumes, 4,500 periodicals plus an enormous collection of audio-visual materials and special collections, the library caters for many different teaching and research needs. In addition the School is fortunate in having the award-winning Brunei Gallery, built in 1995, which contains both a teaching block and art gallery. The latter hosts visiting exhibitions throughout the year. It also houses a small permanent collection. The Percival David Foundation nearby offers another invaluable resource for SOAS students as it contains the world's most significant collection of Chinese ceramics outside Asia.

Established in 1916, the School is part of the federal University of London and awards degrees of the University. Although the School has grown rapidly in the last decade to around 3,000 students, the University hope that the University has managed to retain the friendliness and warmth which were among the School's chief characteristics in its early days. Our students can take advantage not only of what SOAS has to offer but also of the benefits, personal and academic, of being part of the University of London.
