Keele has connections across the globe. There are
over 100,000 Keele alumni in 162 countries. This global
network includes senior diplomats and politicians, leading
business people and officials in international NGOs, such
as the UN. Our research is also increasingly international
in its partnerships, with strong links in every continent.
The University is committed to honouring its heritage
of “a University within North Staffordshire for the
advancement of Knowledge, the diffusion and extension
of Arts, Sciences and Learning, the provision of Liberal,
Professional and Technological Education”. Our links
with the region have seen significant growth in recent
years, developing the New Keele Deal, unlocking £70m
of investment into exploiting the potential of our extensive
world-leading research and facilities. With our integrated
Science and Innovation Park, we are committed to
helping to tackle low productivity and grow a positive
culture of innovation and research within our region.
