Imperial College London


Established in 1907, Imperial College was an amalgamation of the Royal College of Science, the City and Guilds College and the Royal School of Mines in London's scientific and cultural heartland in South Kensington. Today, Imperial College is the embodiment of world class scholarship, delivering education and research in science, engineering and medicine. We collaborate widely externally, fostering interdisciplinary work internally. Until July 2007, Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine was an independent constituent part of the University of London. It was granted a new royal charter declaring it an independent university in its own right.
