Established in 2001, the University of Lincoln has transformed the Brayford Pool area into a thriving city-centre campus and has become a major driver of economic growth in Lincolnshire. The university is home to around 11,000 students and 1,200 staff, contributing more than £250 million annually to the local economy and supporting over 3,000 jobs.

The university's award-winning business incubation centre, Sparkhouse, has helped over 100 businesses establish and grow within the region, creating more than 200 jobs.
The University of Lincoln is also home to the National Centre for Food Manufacturing at its Holbeach campus and, in partnership with Siemens, opened the UK's first purpose-built engineering school in over 25 years. Research, consultancy and business partnerships have generated significant economic benefits, with over £16 million worth of contract research and consultancy undertaken between 2007 and 2012.
