I had an excellent time.
ICL was a wonderful experience for me. I was given the chance to attend one of the top universities in the world to study. Great education and great culture. As soon as I graduated, I found work.
The university in general is great and the lecturers are very conscientious and involved. The study groups sessions in small groups are very useful to draw student’s attention on the key points highlighted during the lectures and make sure everyone has understood those key points. Career centre meetings are held twice a week to present students with career prospects in the biomedical engineering fields. Finally, London Imperial College is highly multicultural which helps discover new cultures and which helps interact with them in a very interesting way. Especially since even in times of COVID-19, the university is doing its best to study groups and lab work on-site as well as some of the lectures. The various group project we are assigned during the term also help us to learn and to work with new people with very different mindsets and working habits, which is a competency that is always more and more necessary in the labour world.

There’s an unequal distribution of modules though, and many students find the intense first term rather challenging.
View moreAfter just a few weeks at Imperial, I have found the place to be wonderfully diverse. There aren’t very many places that can boast such an international community as London, and my course as a master’s student in biomedical engineering has certainly been a thorough and challenging one! I look forward to the adventures the year brings!
View moreThe programme covers various topics relating to the field. It is an intense course, and a lot of deadlines to keep up with. The professors were enthusiastic about the teaching. However, the building is lacking study spaces for students to work.
View moreIt’s definitely a very packed learning schedule, there’s almost a new deadline every week for coursework and there’s also a lot of lectures to catch up to, but all the content and learning experiences that are provided really push your limits and are very enjoyable to learn.
View moreI’m an international student studying Master’s in Biomedical engineering at ICL. Imperial is one of the top 10 universities in the world, and obviously it is one of the best. The standard of teaching is highly commendable and the faculty is very considerate about students’ well being. The modules are very well taught, though some of the study groups are a bit rushed. They are always open to questions and discussions and the coursework makes you really think about what you’ve learnt and how you can improve. There is ample support and a lot of resources ranging from books to videos and research articles. Being a master’s student, there is pressure. But the best part is you learn; not only the subjects, but also about yourself. Apart from academics, the college has over 360 clubs and societies and plenty of events are organised throughout the year. There are tons of opportunities available. At the end of the it depends on how you prioritize things.
View moreI graduated from imperial college in 2021 with a master’s in electrical and electronics engineering in first class. The course is very good and not very difficult to follow. Anyone interested in the field, I would recommend the college
View moreThe teachers at Imperial college are very passionate about their work, and it has a real impact on how they teach it. Best teaching ever. I totally recommend it. It will be hard but it’s totally with it.
View moreThe structure of the course I’m doing is good and has a strong list of modules, with a good variety of areas to specialize in. However, some aspects of the delivery could be better. For instance, not all lecturers are great and the video quality of the lecture recordings can be very bad at times. Aside from this, I feel I am getting a good predation for my career ahead with lots of practical experience through labs and projects every year.
Aside from academics, there is a large variety of societies and clubs. Almost all possible areas of interests are covered. The campus is small but nice – some buildings are a bit old though. The dorms are largely away from campus and most suffer from being old. But the newer ones, aside from being far from campus, are perfect.
Overall I’ve had a very good experience and have enjoyed my time here so far. It was a good decision to come here.
