About
Cranfield School of Management is one of the oldest business schools in Europe. As part of Cranfield University, the UK’s only wholly postgraduate university, we are uniquely placed to connect technology and leadership. Our contribution to global innovation is world-leading, altering the way society thinks, works, and learns. We are proud of our links with the industry. They are an integral part of our history and vital for our future. Management has been part of Cranfield University since the fifties. The University was established on an old RAF site as the first postgraduate college of aeronautics. The School of Management grew out of an industrial need for management training and was formally founded in 1967 (although the Cranfield MBA dates back to 1964). The airfield the University grew up around is still in use. We are globally recognized for our excellence in leadership development and for our powerful industry links and a real-world concentrate.
