This taster course is part of LSE Explore - a series of academic subject taster events, designed to give students in Year 12 the chance to experience university level study first-hand.
The event series will include six online academic subject taster events, online admissions sessions, and three in-person Explore Extra events so do check out our other events!
Please note, there is one application form for all LSE Explore events. You can express interest in both online and in-person events. The number and type of events you express interest in will not impact your chances of being offered a place for the online and/or in-person events and some applicants will be invited to attend both.
Explore Extra - International History is a half-day event taking place at our LSE campus in London. Join us to gain a better understanding of what it is like to study and be a social sciences student at LSE. The day will include:
- Information about career pathways and student support in the department
- Insights from current LSE students about studying in the department
- Taster seminar led by LSE academics
- Campus Tour
Funding is available to support you to attend LSE Explore Extra.
If you’re invited to attend an LSE Explore Extra event and you live outside of London, your travel to and from the campus will be booked and paid for by the Widening Participation Team. If you’re invited to attend an LSE Explore Extra event and you live in London, you’ll be able to claim back travel expenses. If your travel is likely to take longer than three hours each way or would take place outside of reasonable hours (leaving home before 7am or returning home later than 9pm on the day of the event), it is unlikely that you will be invited to attend an LSE Explore Extra event.
