Dyson Institute Shortlisted for THE Specialist Institution of the Year 2025

We’re proud to announce that the Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology has been shortlisted for the Times Higher Education (THE) Awards 2025 in the category of Specialist Institution of the Year.

This award recognises institutions that are redefining what it means to deliver high-quality, impactful higher education in a specialist setting. For us at the Dyson Institute, it’s a moment to reflect on how smaller providers can deliver education that is both innovative and rigorous, deeply connected to industry, and transformative for students.

Our submission to THE Awards highlighted the Dyson Institute’s unique model of integrated academic and professional learning, our commitment to engineering excellence, and the real-world impact our graduates are already making in technology and innovation. Our model allows us to be agile, to personalise the student experience, and to challenge traditional boundaries between education and employment.

We’re honoured to be shortlisted alongside other pioneering institutions and look forward to celebrating the sector’s achievements at the awards ceremony later this year.
