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.
Highly ranked and internationally recognised Cranfield School of Management is a part of Cranfield University.
Shrivenham campus is set in and around the beautifully landscaped gardens of Beckett House, a manor house on the edge of Shrivenham village. The secure campus is home to the Defence Academy of the United Kingdom which is a military and academic community providing postgraduate education in strategy, leadership, management and the application of technology to defence. This rural location is home to over 1500 students, with nearly three times that number using us as the hub for their flexible distance learning. The atmosphere is mature, relaxed and informal.
At our Shrivenham campus, students will find a convivial mix of cultures (military and civilian), backgrounds and nations with an established and supportive infrastructure for everyday living and a wide range of social and sporting opportunities.
Cranfield has a global reputation for inspirational teaching and research, industrial-scale facilities and superior links with industry and commerce. And as a wholly postgraduate institution, Cranfield is the first choice for ambitious and skilled individuals wishing to enrol on Masters’, Doctorate and professional development programmes.
