About us
The University of Nottingham was founded on the vision and philanthropic spirit of Jesse Boot who, in 1928, donated the land that is now University Park. The vision of a university devoted to discovery, enterprise and the advancement of the human condition, combined with his lifelong commitment to improving health and wellbeing, remains intrinsic to the culture of the University today and will continue to underpin our future purpose. Our pioneering spirit and ambitious vision still resonates and drives our University today, as we strive to deliver an exceptional research- led education to our 46,000 students, and to transform lives and societies around the globe through our world-leading research.
