The University of Huddersfield (informally Huddersfield University) is a public research university located in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, England. It has been a University since 1992, but has its origins in a series of institutions dating back to the 19th century. It has made teaching quality a particular focus of its activities, winning the inaugural Higher Education Academy Global Teaching Excellence Award in 2017,[4] and achieving a Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) Gold Award, in 2017 [5] and 2023.[6] The university has also put an increasing focus on research quality, and as of 2022 more than three quarters of its academic staff hold a doctorate, the third highest rate in England.[7]

Its chancellor George W. Buckley, a graduate of the university and a former CEO of 3M, was appointed in 2020.[8][9]
