As our population grows, so do our demands on the planet
Without enterprising and impactful research, these demands could leave the world – and all its inhabitants – at breaking point.
At Harper Adams, we confront these global crises with confidence and purpose. We recognise that no single individual or organisation can solve the world’s sustainability issues alone; which is why we harness the full expertise of all departments, our combined disciplines and global collaborations through our research. We leave no stone unturned. Our unwavering commitment to exceptional education and research is crucial for supporting the specialist sectors we serve. Only through our combined efforts, can we hope to nurture the talent and evidence-based ideas needed for a global sustainable future.
For the past fifty years, impactful research and innovation have been at the core of Harper Adams’ mission. This is why the Research Excellence Framework continues to internationally recognise the quality of our work.
Our Research Centres, epitomise our mission for collaboration – bringing together devoted staff, state-of-the-art facilities, academic scholars and industry experts across all disciplines and departments. Through these centres, we will continue to make the difference.
