About the university
Cranfield’s mission to transform knowledge into ingenious solutions in science, technology and management places us at the forefront of some of the world’s most practical, cutting-edge projects.
From unique cabin evacuation research to finding life on Mars, from a frost blanket for racecourses to zero-emission cars, and from the next generation of anti-landmine devices to a new blood glucose monitor, Cranfield’s focus is squarely on the application of its research.
Cranfield has a global reputation for inspirational teaching and research, industrial-scale facilities and superior links with industry and commerce and as the only wholly postgraduate institution in the UK, Cranfield is the first choice for ambitious and skilled individuals wishing to enrol on Masters’, Doctorate and professional development programmes.
Our passion for the areas of expertise we operate in - aerospace, automotive and motorsport, defence, engineering, health, management, manufacturing, environment and water – makes us uniquely placed for both students and corporate partners alike.
