 Prior to becoming a professional management consultant, Ivor R. Ellul
attended the University of Malta, where he earned a bachelor of science in
mechanical engineering. Ivor R. Ellul also attended Imperial College in
London, England where he earned both a master of science and a PhD in
petroleum engineering.
The PhD program in Engineering at Imperial College London admits around
50 students annually. Most successful applicants apply for specific research
projects undergoing study at the institution. Grants and scholarship
programs, plus certain instances of funding by individual research
departments, generally provide for research at the college. Students
interested in pursuing a doctoral degree at Imperial College must submit
applications online, but only after a prospective academic supervisor has
expressed sufficient interest in their research.
Present day Imperial College London originated as the Government School
of Mines and of Science as Applied to the Arts founded by Sir Henry de la
Beche in 1851. Prince Albert was a patron and supporter of the later
developments in science teaching, which led to the Royal College of
Chemistry becoming part of the Royal School of Mines and to the creation of
the Royal College of Science and eventually to these institutions becoming
part of his plan for South Kensington being an educational region.
