Investing in the UK has become cheaper since Brexit, with businesses constantly working with universities to give them the edge over competitors. It is from these companies that universities receive funding for research, and everything from pharmaceutical giants to manufacturing companies contribute.
And when it comes to industry income per academic, Cranfield University tops the chart.

Cranfield University has relations with around 1500 companies and recently collaborated with AIRC(Aerospace Integration Research Centre).

I sincerely thank SI-UK for getting me accepted to UCL. The MSc in Urban Development and Planning is extremely competitive, but the right guidance provided by SI-UK made my dream of studying at University College London a reality. The services were exceptional from beginning to end.
