 Ifyou'reeverincentralLondonbetweenCoventGardenandHolbo...

 If you're ever in central London between Covent Garden and Holborn, look up. You might spot three letters somewhere between the Starbucks angels and the pub signs: “LSE”. They may not look much. But these three letters welcome you to one of the world's leading universities for social and political sciences.

The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) offers more than just economics. You can study all sorts of things, from history to mathematics to psychology. The university was founded in 1895. It has always set very high standards for its students. Today, it accepts fewer students every year than any other British university. It's not surprising that 17 Nobel Prize winners and 34 world leaders went to LSE' including John F. Kennedy.

Those who do get a place can enjoy teaching from LSE's top-class staff. Students have the chance to learn in the university's great facilities(设施). The LSE has the world's largest social and political sciences library, its own theater, and many other lecture theaters. These host lectures and debates for both students and the public.

  Some of the most important people in the world come to speak. Recent speakers have included former UN Secretary—General Kofi Annan, former US President Bill Clinton, and even ' controversially' Colonel Gaddafi. In 2008, the LSE started “LSE Live”, a series of live online lectures.

There's still time for fun at LSE. Students can join up with the LSE student union to take part in sports, arts and drama clubs. They can also join up with other London universities.

 What's more, LSE is big on China. The university has a strong link with Peking University. A two-week LSE—PKU summer school takes place every year. The course covers economics, management, international relations, media and law, all with a focus on China and Asia. How's that for strengthening East-West relations?
