Imperial College London – Centre for Infrastructure Materials

Imperial College London is the UKs only university focussed entirely on science, engineering, medicine and business and we are consistently rated in the top 10 universities in the world. You will find our main London campus in South Kensington, with our hospital campuses located nearby in West and North London. We also have Silwood Park in Berkshire and state-of-the-art facilities in development at our major new campus in White City. We work in a multidisciplinary and diverse community for education, research, translation and commercialisation, harnessing science and innovation to tackle the big global challenges our complex world faces. Its our mission to achieve enduring excellence in all that we do for the benefit of society and we are looking for the most talented people to help us get there. We benefit from world-leading research facilities in the UKCRIC National Centre for Infrastructure Materials, which forms a key part of the Materials Section. This gives us unique capabilities in materials analysis, characterisation and testing. Our research focusses on the critically important materials required to deliver world leading sustainable infrastructure. This includes all the major categories of materials and we have ongoing research investigating polymers, fibre composites, metals, cement and concrete, glass and ceramics, and biomaterials. Our research is addressing major global issues concerned with sustainability, the low-carbon economy, whole life cycle issues, materials circularity and long term durability and performance. We aim to complete highly innovative research and collaborate widely with academic and industrial stakeholders.
