• Aug 2019 - Mar 2020

LSE CHOICE is a university widening participation programme that gives young people from London state schools the skills they need to successfully apply to highly selective universities. During summer school, I was given an introduction to the study of Politics and understanding the different ways in which Politics can be described in academia. I enjoyed learning about the activities associated with Politics such as activism where I was given the opportunity to question an active member of Extinct Rebellion. In addition, after the summer school, I participated in sixteen masterclasses where I engaged in different contemporary political topics like legitimacy, climate globalisation, populism and whether the assassination of Qasem Soleimani was a war crime. This experience has allowed me to strengthen teamwork skills and research skills. Show less
