📖 Introduction
King's College London is a public research university located in London, England. King's was established by royal charter in 1829 under the patronage of King George IV and the Duke of Wellington. In 1836, King's became one of the two founding colleges of the University of London. King’s vision is to make the world a better place and today, we seek to define the university of the future. Many academics are researchers working within and influencing their industries, giving students access to the latest thinking within a contemporary context.
The four Thames-side campuses in central London, and at Denmark Hill, place the college at the center of leading global conversations in policy, government, law, culture, religion, business and medicine. But they're also truly part of the boroughs they live in. The college use its expertise to identify challenges affecting its communities and collaborate with them to address local issues, examples that can then be used across the UK and throughout the world.
