學校詳細介紹

In 1907, the Royal College of Science, the Royal School of Mines and the City & Guilds College were combined to form Imperial College London.

Imperial is home to 17,000 students and 8,000 staff.
Over 6,700 degrees are awarded by Imperial College London every year. We are an international community, attracting undergraduates from more than 125 countries.

The College focuses on the four main disciplines of science, engineering, medicine and business and is renowned for its application of these skills to industry and enterprise. Excellence in education is at the core of Imperial’s ethos and is reflected in UK and international rankings. Imperial is home to the greatest concentration of high-impact research of any major UK university. 

We have tremendous strength in the core disciplines practised by our academic departments. This was demonstrated in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework, an assessment of the quality of research in UK higher education institutions, in which over 90 per cent of the research submitted by Imperial was judged to be world-leading or internationally excellent. This excellence is broadly found across all our disciplines, and applies equally to our research outputs, impact and environment. These strengths provide us with the underpinning capability required to work together across disciplines in order to address global challenges.
