Description
Imperial College London continues to push the frontiers in world-leading research, life-changing education, and transformative innovation. Our Academic Strategy will help us realize our ambition to deliver transformative impact for societal benefit on a global scale. It draws on our ground-breaking fundamental research and ability to develop new insights to enable sustainable change and improve our world. It sets out our vision for an improved student experience that will prepare our students to be leaders, to innovate and drive change.
Our strategic approach
The Academic Strategy has been developed to set out immediate areas that are fruitful for new discovery – opening doors to new technologies, enabling applications with major impact and societal benefit, or offering new educational experiences while enhancing the learning environment for our students.
It is based on themes that support the vision of society that we share and reflect the strength of our research in these areas, and on the capabilities that frame Imperial’s distinctive approach to all that we do.
We have identified four themes where both our expertise is particularly strong and where there are clear unanswered questions or societal challenges that require attention. These themes build on faculty and department strategies to identify areas of current excellence and emerging intellectual focus in research and education, as well as opportunities to build new strengths.
Our excellence in the core disciplines is central to our academic vision. It underpins everything we do, allowing us to work together across disciplines and confront societal and global challenges. Imperial College London is committed to accelerating discovery and impact on society through strategic, College-wide investments.
