Our mission is to generate, apply and share knowledge and develop skills for a sustainable world.

Introducing the Natural Resources Institute at the University of Greenwich


Director of NRI, Professor Sheryl Hendriks gives an overview of some of this work and the support afforded to our NRI undergraduate and postgraduate learners.

What we teach

Students benefit from our outstanding teaching, innovative research and links with industry. At postgraduate level we have full time and part time courses for professionals working in food manufacturing and supply chain.

The Food Innovation MSc was suitable for me as it combined both academic writing and practical experiences and taught me to think critically in the processes of food product development and gave me the confidence to take the next step in my career.

Study at the Natural Resources Institute


The Natural Resources Institute (NRI) is a specialist research, development and education organisation with a focus on agriculture, the environment, and sustainability.

My project supervisors were flexible and knowledgeable and provided great mentorship throughout the year. I would 100% recommend the course.
