 | | King's College is one of the oldest, largest, and most prestigious colleges of the University of London. It claims the most central location of all the colleges and universities in London, with several campuses that sit within a single square mile along the Thames-at the Strand, Waterloo, and London Bridge. |
 | | King's College has earned distinction for its highly acclaimed faculty and long-standing history of research innovation. Two members of the faculty are Nobel Laureates and many others are fellows of venerable academic and scientific institutions such as the Royal Society, the British Academy, and the Royal Academy of Engineering. |
 | | King's past research achievements include the invention of telegraphy, use of antiseptic medicine, development of beta-blockers, and the discovery of the structure of DNA. Today, many of the College's well-known centers of excellence--such as those for prison studies, construction law, developmental neurobiology, medical law and ethics, defense studies, and drug control-lead cutting-edge research activities. |
