Imperial College London
Imperial College London (legally Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine) is a public research university in London.

In 1988, the Imperial College School of Medicine was formed by combining with St Mary’s Hospital Medical School. In 2004, Queen Elizabeth II opened the Imperial College Business School.
