Harper Adams University

The world needs new talent. There are problems to solve and we are developing the skills and technology to tackle them. Here at Harper Adams University, we are daring to take on these global challenges – and we are succeeding. Our mission is to advance knowledge, inspire and equip learners to deliver real change, building a sustainable future for our living planet.

The scale of the challenges facing us demands that we must prepare our students to put what they learn into practise, to make a real, tangible difference today and in the future. We embrace new agendas, forge technological innovations, solve often insurmountable problems, all while delivering the best talent and brightest minds into the sectors we support.

We do not take on these challenges lightly. Over a century’s worth of expertise has paved the way for a more confident Harper Adams; one defined by innovation, transformation, and a drive for difference. We have always been more than just a university; we are a conscious community of every curious mind, world shaper and impact seeker that has emboldened us since 1901. We so effectively deliver the difference the planet desperately needs, because of this collaboration and synthesis between our past and our future, institution and community, the known and the only dreamed of.

Together, we will make the difference.
