Welcome to the SOAS Centenary blog.

SOAS celebrates 100 years of excellence in research, learning and teaching on Asia, Middle East and Africa from June 2016 – July 2017.

This blog has been created to showcase the stories, moments, images and notable people that students, staff and alumni submit for inclusion in the timeline. This will help to build a fuller picture of the School’s history and celebrate everything that makes it so special.

Whether your submission is based on a theme such as SOAS in the world, or you would like to share the positive impact that a lecturer or peer has had on you, your submission will be greatly received.

Sharing your experiences will play an important part in the helping the School to reflect on its past, while it looks forward to its exciting future.
