“Last spring, we launched Tomorrow. Brighter. It was Cranfield’s way of drawing on its characteristic strengths – original thinking, rigorous research, and our ‘close to business’ mindset – to help draw the roadmap to a brighter tomorrow.
I truly believe tomorrow can only ever be brighter if we make the world a better place not just for the fortunate few, but for everyone.
Here in the School of Management, we continue to take a leading role in responding to the emerging challenges and opportunities that are reshaping the world around us. And in doing this, more than ever, we are dedicated to supporting those who deserve a place here at our great University, to study, to explore, to shape the future of our world.
As a long-serving member of faculty (I am now in my 39th year at the University!) and an alumnus myself, I care deeply about Cranfield. Moreover, I care deeply about the future which we have in our power to shape today. I hope you share this sentiment, and that you will join us to help make tomorrow better.”
