The Institute's core research themes are in the enabling technologies of bionics, tissue engineering, image analysis and bionanotechnology, which will form the basis for advances in areas such as personalised healthcare, regenerative medicine and biomedical imaging. Details of the research programme and current projects, can be found at www.imperial.ac.uk/biomedeng/research .
It welcomes applications from students with first or masters degrees in engineering, life or physical sciences with an interest in applying the knowledge and understanding of their field to medical applications for improved healthcare.
In May 2006 the Institute moves into purpose built accommodation on the South Kensington campus of around 4000 square metres with state of the art facilities to support its research programme. The Institute will house a bionanotechnology centre, 'wet' labs for molecular biology, materials characterisation, cell culture and flow studies, and 'dry' labs for circuits and electronics, imaging, sensors and robotic surgery - including a virtual operating theatre.
how to apply
See the online Postgraduate Prospectus at www.imperial.ac.uk/pgprospectus for the most up to date information and further details on postgraduate research or visit the Institute's web site at www.imperial.ac.uk/biomedeng/research .
Application forms for admission are available from the Admissions Office, Imperial College London, South Kensington Campus, London SW7 2AZ, or online at www.imperial.ac.uk/pgaf . Applications for PhD study may be made at any time but most students apply between November and April. Early application is recommended.
Scholarships
The Institute awards scholarships to support the best students wanting to carry out research in one of its core themes. Scholars are selected from applicants to the Institute or to Departments working on joint projects in the field of biomedical engineering. There is no special application process.
The Postgraduate Prospectus provides useful information about student life at Imperial College and can be obtained from the Registry. The staff research interests show the types of research being undertaken and will enable you to identify academic researchers who might provide appropriate supervision.
The imperial royal thai scholarships in biomedical engineering
Each year, the Thai Government awards up to 5 Scholarships for Thai students wishing to study for a PhD at Imperial College London in biomedical engineering. Full details of these awards can be found at www.ocsc.go.th
Funded phd positions
For details of funded PhD postions, please visit the job opportunities page. They currently have a PhD vacancies for studentships in the area of robotic and computer assisted orthopaedic surgery and nanofluidic devices for molecular separation and detection.
