Imperial is a major research university and member of the Russell Group. With so many discoveries happening all around you, expect to be challenged and inspired as we open your mind to the latest thinking in your subject area.

What makes Imperial special is the quality of our people, who come here from all over the world and contribute diverse perspectives, new ideas, and fresh approaches to solving complex problems.

Many of our researchers are involved in teaching so you’ll get to experience their expertise first hand in lectures, seminars and laboratory work. 

You may also have the chance to work alongside them through our Undergraduate Research Opportunities Programme (UROP), which offers over 300 students a year a hands-on experience in one of our research teams.
