The launch of King’s Edge could not be timelier, and I am delighted that King’s students will have the chance to benefit from the university’s track-record in developing an unparalleled range of extracurricular, careers & employability and wellbeing programmes. The past year has demonstrated how important transferrable skills like critical thinking, problem-solving and digital skills are. The programme will allow students to be actively engaged in various initiatives, cultivate inquisitive learning and create a sense of community at King’s.

Professor Nicola Phillips, Vice-President and Vice-Principal (Education)

Drawing on the university’s unique connections in and across London’s many institutions, agencies and organisations, the focus on skills, employability and wellbeing within King’s Edge is more important now than ever. Engaging in activities that are future-focussed and personally meaningful will not only help prepare students for the next steps in their career, it will help build networks, enhance wellbeing and strengthen their sense of belonging within King’s and within London.
