About University of Nottingham

Nottingham’s first civic college was opened in the city centre in 1881, four years after the foundation stone was laid by former Prime Minister, W E Gladstone. An anonymous benefactor had offered £10,000 for a college on condition that a suitable building be erected by the Council and that the college should be provided with £4,000 a year.

After the First World War, the college outgrew its original building. A generous gift by Sir Jesse Boot, of 35 acres of land at Highfields, presented the solution and in 1928 the College moved to what is now the main campus, University Park. Initially, it was accommodated in the elegant Trent Building and was officially opened by King George V in November of that year.

The University of Nottingham has continued to excel in its core missions of research, teaching and supporting students this year. In the 2021 Research Excellence Framework, we improved position in each of the headline measures, with our Research Power ranked as 7th in the UK. This is a testament to the quality and determination of our researchers to make a fundamental difference to people’s lives and reflects the talent, imagination, and dedication of our community.

This year also saw the acquisition of the Castle Meadow Campus site, which will prove to be a significant investment in our staff and students, and an expression of confidence in the future of both the university and the city of Nottingham, enabling us to deliver on our ambitions to support jobs, investment and growth across the city and deliver greater opportunities for collaboration with local business, industry and SMEs.

The new Power Electronics and Machines Centre, officially opened this year, will drive advances in powerful, clean electrification technology and pave the way towards a new generation of low-carbon, sustainable electric vehicles, power and propulsion. The building lies at the heart of our plans to develop research and innovation clusters over the next five years which will generate significant regional economic benefit while addressing strategic challenges faced by the UK.
