Studying engineering at Imperial college has been a great experience, the university has invested considerable amounts of money into the laboratories, library and lecture theatres which is clear to see. I find the lectures to be very informative and also the tutors are really passionate about the subject which is great to see. The university has amazing labs which have been really helpful to my research. I am also involved with a number of interesting societies at the University which has been a great way to meet new people and socialise. The main one I am working with is a society where we develop mobile phone applications and we are looking to release one for the Iphone very soon, it has been a great extra curricular project and really really fun to work on. The only downside to the University is the accommodation it is very expensive for what it is and also It is quite far away from where my campus is, so I have to spend a lot of extra money on travel.

I really enjoy studying at Imperial College London, but as a warning be prepared to work very hard. I have often seen a queue round the block to get into the library at 9am on a Saturday morning. I do try and relax as well, but I generally find I do at least a few hours of work a day at least. My course is really good as it allows you to choose between a wide range of modules so you can choose how you would like to study. I also find that Imperials name goes along way in the job world and a lot of employers see Imperial as one of the best universities in the world. Also the accommodation is really good but it is expensive, so be prepared for that. My top tip for getting a place at Imperial is to know what you would like to get out of university and that will really help you at your interview, make sure you are really passionate about your course.
