students a competitive edge for their future. That’s what we do, and it’s what we have been doing since our very first students passed through our doors in 1894. The university of
surrey in england, was established with an aim to educate men and women who had a thirst for knowledge and a hunger to succeed. Whilst times have changed, our belief
in the power of education and innovation remains the same.
Battersea College of Technology
The University of Surrey was established on 9 September 1966 with
the grant of its Royal Charter but its roots go back to a late 19th century concern to provide greater access to further and higher education for the 'poorer inhabitants' of London.

The forerunner of the university of surrey in england, the Battersea Polytechnic
Institute (founded 1891, first students admitted 1894) began concentrating on science and technology from about 1920 and taught day and evening students
for degrees of the university of surrey in england, of London. Its academic reputation steadily grew to the point in 1956 where it was one of the first
colleges to be designated a 'college of advanced technology'. It was renamed Battersea College of Technology in 1957.
