Welcome to the new academic year from President & Principal, Professor Shitij Kapur

King's has been educating talented, ambitious, passionate students like you for nearly 200 years. From reformers like Archbishop Desmond Tutu to Olympians, like Dina Asher-Smith, from poets like John Keats to scientists like Rosalind Franklin who discovered the DNA. Thousands of students from over 150 countries have come to King's and found their future. In joining this long and illustrious list of King's alumni, I hope you will not only get a world-class education and a university experience, but we also hope that you will find your purpose and your passion and perhaps even your direction in life. I hope you have a great start to the new year at King's. I look forward to seeing you soon.– Professor Shitij Kapur, President & Principal
