We have many world-class, large-scale and national facilities that enhance and enrich the quality and value of our research and teaching, and can also help you with your research or business improvement plan.
These facilities allow us to conduct exciting, leading science that is transformative both for the academic knowledge base and for the non-academic beneficiaries of our research.
In addition to the option of hiring our facilities and equipment for on-site use, we can also offer processing, experimental and analysis services, upskilling for researchers through the receipt of training on our state-of-the-art facilities and, through collaborative research projects, the opportunity for researchers to work alongside each other in conducting experiments.
We also have a range of onsite business support services and facilities including Cranfield Airport, IT, conferencing and business incubation.
Physical facilities
