Imperial College London is one of the world’s top ten universities, internationally renowned for the quality of its teaching and research. Across 23 acres in West London, the White City Campus is home to researchers working alongside some of the most innovative businesses operating today.
In White City north, you will find multidisciplinary research facilities, laboratories, innovation spaces for businesses of all sizes, accommodation for postgraduate students and our flagship residential tower.
In White City south, you will find Scale Space: over 18,000 square metres tailored to high-growth businesses and scale-ups. The Invention Rooms are also here, where local families and school children can come to learn, be inspired, and create.

External links
Linking to external websites (any site not within the Imperial T4 system) requires the hyperlink button. Remember to tell it to open in a new window, and not to use 'click here' as a label for the link - rather indicate with a phrase or short sentence where the link will take the user and make that the link.
Bad example: for further info click here.
Good example: for further information please see the King's College London website.
Internal links
Internal links are any links that happen between two Imperial T4 pages. The T4 system refers to them as section links, and they require the section link button.
For instance, linking to the Imperial College London Human Resources page would be an internal link.
A link to a media library document looks like this - Test document number 2 (pdf)
