Your future employability is a top priority for Harper Adams University.
We’ve been named the UK’s number one university for career prospects for nine years running (Whatuni Student Choice Awards).
How do we do it?
With courses developed hand-in-hand with industry. Businesses local to us, but operating globally, have helped to steer three new courses, covering data science, business and robotics, because they want to nurture fresh talent here in the Midlands.
With outstanding opportunities to apply your learning – including real-word projects, work placements, and teaching direct from industry.
With extensive networks across sectors we feed talent into – in food for example, you’ll find former Harper students in top roles across all major supermarket operations, in food production, throughout the agricultural industries from animal nutrition to farm technology.
And we have a community of students, employees and supporters all working towards common goals.
They’re all here. Will you join us?
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 here for the 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.
More than a century’s worth of expertise has paved the way for the Harper Adams of today: 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.
