History

The origins of the university go back to 1946 with the College off Aeronautics on the air base of the Royal Air Force Cranfield. This college was created to diversify the offer of courses Postgraduate (second and third cycle) which until now could proceed only with the Université of Cambridge or with London. During the Fifties and 60, the development of aeronautical research contributed to the development and the diversification of technologies étudiées.
In 1969, the College off Aeronautics took the name of Cranfield Institute off Technology (Institute of technology of Cranfield) by royal Charte. The institution was thus authorized to deliver its own diplomas; many departments were founded in order to diversify the fields of research. Since then, the National College off Agricultural Engineering of Silsoe was built-in and a partnership was created with the Royal Military College off Science (RMCS) of Shrivenham (the RMCS is called off from now on Defense College Management and Technology ).
In 1993, the royal charter was amended in order to confer on the institute the statute of university and to change its name into Cranfield University . In 1996, the university celebrated its first fiftieth anniversary as a principal university reserved being studied Postgraduate S .
