For organisations to estimate, test and forecast their development and manufacturing challenges, specialist facilities are often required, be they physical or via sophisticated software modelling. Our specialist facilities enable this and are often on an industrial scale, niche and unavailable anywhere else in the world. Whether it is a full-size, configurable passenger aircraft, an algae farm, or an oil and gas rig with extensive test capabilities, we are able to scale up life-cycle processes to predict and pre-empt potential future issues reducing the risks for future investment.
Keep up with the latest thinking across management and technology and meet like-minded individuals who could benefit your business. We provide you with the opportunity to meet with other business leaders, academics, students and industrial practitioners. Cranfield graduates have experience focusing on practical application of theory, links with industry and real-world skills.
