Together, we shape the future

At Heriot-Watt, we don’t just imagine a better future. We shape it.

Since 1821, Heriot-Watt's innovative education model and pioneering research has enabled us to make global, positive impact by creating and sharing solutions with society. The Shaping Futures campaign is expanding and deepening this legacy.

Together, during our bicentennial celebration season, the work of our staff, the support of our alumni community, and our partnerships with industry and friends have already achieved over £350 million of investment into the research and education opportunities forming our Shaping Futures campaign.

From this sure foundation, we are propelled forward into the next season of ambition, as we aim to raise £80 million to build on our distinct strengths and areas of expertise: empowering through education initiatives, driving global sustainability imperatives, transforming healthcare technologies, and innovating with business and industry.

With your help, we will become an even more dynamic force for positive change and a powerful driver of meaningful global impact.

It's time to shape a brighter, more inclusive, and prosperous world.

Together, we will shape the future.
