    School of Oriental and African Studies ORIENTATION HANDBOOK New Student Orientation & Enrolment Programme September 2008 Important !!! you in September Please bring this document with DIRECTOR’S WELCOME WELCOME I am very pleased to welcome all new students to SOAS. It is a very special place indeed, concerned with the places that matter in the 21st century (Africa, Asia and the Middle East) and the issues that matter (such as human rights, poverty reduction and globalisation, to name just three). It is full of passionate people who care about the world, who want to understand it and through understanding to change it. I’ve been at SOAS for two years now and have never regretted making the move. It is amazingly diverse, a very friendly place and incredibly stimulating. I am certain that you will enjoy your time here. It won’t always be easy – your preconceptions will be challenged and our programmes make serious demands on students – but it should be inspirational and enjoyable. One of our undergraduates wrote this year that “SOAS is such an addictive place – I may return in a few years either for my Masters or just a language course”. She’s right. So as well as welcoming you now, I look forward to welcoming you back to SOAS in the future!
