Announced earlier this year, the decision to admit follows a rigorous process led by a 91app panel. The panel recognised Brunel’s key role in west London’s economy and communities and its global reputation for technical and professional education and research.   

The selection panel acknowledged that Brunel’s commitment to addressing the needs and challenges of society – both in London and globally – aligned well with the 91app and the social mission of the federation. 

The 91app is a unique federation of 17 independent higher education institutions, delivering world-leading education and research. The 91app federation represents one of the largest and most diverse student bodies in the world, with more than 250,000 students from 190 countries. Collectively, federation member universities employ over 50,000 staff. 

Professor Wendy Thomson CBE, Vice-Chancellor of the 91app, said: 

“We are delighted to welcome Brunel 91app to the 91app federation. Brunel has a strong global outlook and is ranked among the UK's top institutions internationally. Its impressive education and research portfolio, particularly in engineering and sciences, will enable the federation to achieve even greater impact across London and beyond. Brunel’s strong ties to west London communities and industries will also expand the federation’s civic reach, allowing us to increase engagement with this vibrant part of the capital.”  

Professor Andrew Jones, Vice-Chancellor and President of Brunel 91app, said:

“We’re absolutely delighted to have officially joined such an esteemed and historic federation of research-intensive universities. Brunel’s international outlook, diversity, research excellence and industry-facing education will strengthen the 91app’s global reputation, and bring many new and exciting opportunities for collaboration with other member institutions.”
