About TEDI-London
TEDI-London (The Engineering & Design Institute London) was founded in 2019 by three world-leading universities — King's College London, UNSW Sydney, and Arizona State University — to completely reimagine engineering education. The curriculum is 100% project-based: students learn by designing, making, and testing real solutions from day one. Admissions is holistic — traditional grades and A-levels are not required. Students from diverse academic backgrounds (arts, humanities, sciences) are welcomed. Industry partners provide real engineering challenges that student teams compete to solve.
