King’s Strategic Vision 2029
Our vision is to make the world a better place.
Since our foundation in 1829, our students and staff have dedicated themselves in the service of society.
Our Strategic Vision, launched in January 2017 takes us to our 200th anniversary in
2029 and builds upon our history of making a full contribution to society.
We will continue to focus on world-leading education, research and service and will have an increasingly proactive role to play in a more interconnected, complex world.
We will continue to expand the huge contribution King’s makes to London and through that a national contribution within the UK, and beyond that to an international community that serves the world.
