The History Society is the place for all things history at LSE! Building a social and academic community for enthusiastic history lovers.
The LSESU History Society is an active and enthusiastic society at LSE. We are one of the friendliest groups on campus and welcome all students, whether you’re studying history or not! If you enjoy visiting famous historical sites, debating historical issues or just want to spend your time with a fun, social group of people – we’re the society for you.
The society is much more than a platform to discuss history. Our infamous social events mean that you will become part of a community that will stay with you throughout your time at LSE. We’ll also be collaborating with other societies on campus to pull off some unforgettable social events. We are so lucky to be studying in a city that has a wealth of history. So, expect incredible speakers and of course our favourite – pub quiz nights!
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We’re looking forward to welcoming you to the family!
