ABOUT US

Who we are
Founded in 1935, by Sir Edward Appleton, the Maxwell Society is the Physics Department's student society. Our committee is an ambitious and committed group of physics students from a wide range of backgrounds. We serve a dedicated group of members, formed by each and every single person supporting us and making use of our events and different programmes.

WHAT WE DO
The society runs many events which range from talks given by external lecturers, to social gatherings and workshops. We also organise trips and opportunities to improve our members' academic prospects within the university, and their careers as young physicists.

what's OUR MISSION
Our aim is to provide an inclusive environment in which all years can socialise and help each other out. We further want to contribute to the academic experience of King's
undergraduates and members of the public by exposing them to world-leading speakers from outside the university.
EVENTS

"
I am delighted to be able to work alongside the Maxwell Society in improving the student experience. Not only does the Society promote physics through invited speakers and external visits, but it also helps develop student skills, vital for employment and further study.
- Professor Peter Main, Head of Departement of Physics, King's College London
