  • About Imperial College London
    About Imperial College London Overview Imperial College London is one of the world’s greatest universities, renowned for its ground- breaking research, talented community of staff, students and alumni and its international reach. With a mission to achieve enduring excellence in research and education in science, engineering, medicine and business for the benefit of society, the College was founded in 1907 in South Kensington, bringing together nineteenth century institutions including the Royal College of Science, Royal School of Mines and City and Guilds College. Today Imperial collaborates extensively with neighbouring institutions, including the Royal College of Art and the Royal College of Music. From its location in this great cultural quarter, Imperial provides one of the world’s best educations in STEM subjects for more than 18,400 students, over half of whom come from overseas, reflecting its status as the UK’s most international university. Imperial has three academic faculties – Engineering, Medicine, and Natural Sciences – and the Imperial College Business School, as well as a significant number of interdisciplinary research centres focusing on challenging world problems. The College’s mission is supported by over 8,000 diverse staff, who collaborate in the UK and internationally, often across disciplines. In 2017-2018 the College had a total turnover of over £1 billion, of which £364.2 million directly supported research through grants and contracts. The College’s 2015-2020 Strategy is built on the foundations that make Imperial a strong academic institution and the talented and inspirational people who make up its community. The College’s success is recognised all over the world, as is evidenced by daily coverage of Imperial discoveries and innovations in the international media and claims many distinguished members, including 14 Nobel laureates, three Fields Medallists, and members of the Royal Further Particulars: Lecturer / Senior Lecturer in Statistics 1 Society and National Academies.

  • La Dyson School of Design Engineering Formerà Gli Ingegneri Del Futuro Nel Cuore Di Londra
    La Dyson School of Design Engineering formerà gli ingegneri del futuro nel cuore di Londra Sir James Dyson ha annunciato oggi l’apertura della Dyson School of Design Engineering presso l’Imperial College London. Dalla nuova Scuola uscirà la prossima generazione dei tanto richiesti laureati in ingegneria e leader del settore tecnologico. James Dyson ha dichiarato: “Vogliamo formare ingegneri audaci, dotati di astuzia commerciale, che sappiano utilizzare le loro capacità, coltivate alla Dyson School, per sviluppare tecnologie d’avanguardia e stimolare la crescita economica in Gran Bretagna.” La Dyson School sarà ospitata nell’iconica Exhibition Road, in un edificio venduto dal Museo della Scienza all’Imperial - il tutto grazie a una donazione di 12 milioni di sterline da parte della Fondazione James Dyson. L’acquisto contribuirà a finanziare la più radicale trasformazione nella storia del Museo. Prima facoltà di ingegneria fondata all’Imperial College negli ultimi vent’anni, dall’ottobre 2015 la Dyson School offrirà un master quadriennale in Ingegneria del design. Il piano di studi, sviluppato in collaborazione con gli ingegneri di Dyson con un’attenzione mirata al settore, è un connubio di disciplina tecnica e creatività. Gli apparecchi e gli ambienti di studio rispecchiano gli standard di settore e consentiranno a 400 studenti di progettare, creare prototipi e collaudare idee innovative. La Professoressa Alice Gast, Presidente dell’Imperial College London, ha affermato: “Il design nasce dalla combinazione di esperienza tecnica e creatività e la Dyson School of Design Engineering saprà fondere questi due concetti nelle esperienze e nelle ricerche di cui gli studenti saranno protagonisti. L’Imperial College e Dyson sono animati da una passione condivisa: formare ingegneri che sappiano sviluppare idee e soluzioni di problem solving innovative.
