Please note that fees are charged by year of entry to the College and not year of study. The fees listed within this section are for students in the 2020–2021 academic session. To find the fee for your course, please choose your Department from the boxes below.

The UK Research Councils (RCUK) have confirmed their indicative fee for 2020-21 and this fee will increase annually by an amount linked to inflation (currently, the measure used is the GDP deflator); fees for subsequent years of study may be higher than the fees listed here. Imperial College London reserves the right to amend these fees following the release of the indicative fee by the RCUK. For more information on the Research Council Indicative Fee please see the UKRI website.

Except where otherwise indicated, the fees for continuing part-time students will increase annually by an amount linked to inflation as above; the fee paid for subsequent years of study may be higher than the fee listed here.
