International student ambassadors

Contact a student from your country

To find out more about studying economics in the UK you can ask our current students about their experience at Queen Mary, University of London. Whether you want to know what it's like to study economics at University or to know about the events and activities that the School of Economics and Finance organises for UG student or simply to share the experience of settling in and studying in a new country, our International Student Ambassadors will be able to help.

The School of Economics and Finance has a diverse student body with many different nationalities represented on our undergraduate economics courses. Even if your country is not listed here, please email us and we will help put you in touch with the right student.
