Cranfield University is one of Western EuropeÂ’s largest academic centres for strategic and applied research, development and design. As a small, virtually bespoke university, Cranfield University is distinctive. It is unique in its entirely postgraduate focus. Our postgraduate study programme is focused on real life rather than on pure theory.Industrial and commercial sponsors recognise this, so our contract research income outstrips that of most other UK universities. As a result of our unique approach, our graduates are found worldwide, making significant contributions in their fields - an enviable network of men and women with the reputation for excellence that the name of Cranfield bestows.
The university is made up of three campuses Cranfield, Silsoe and Shrivenham (The Defence College of Management and Technology).
Cranfield campus in Bedfordshire embraces our bustling airport - another unique feature - in extensive grounds with plenty of free car parking, excellent housing provision and superb sports and recreation facilities.
As a result the atmosphere is mature and focused, with an established infrastructure which makes study and leisure time productive and enjoyable. Many opportunities may also be available through the Cranfield College of Aeronautics.
The campus lies about 10 minutes from the M1 motorway, the UKÂ’s main north/south artery, and has rail and road access to most major airports.
