The University of Reading is a prominent public research university located in Berkshire, England. Tracing its origins to 1892 as an extension college of the University of Oxford (receiving its Royal Charter as an independent university in 1926), Reading has established worldwide pre-eminence in climate science, meteorology, agriculture, food systems, land management, and business leadership. Reading is home to the Regius Professor of Meteorology and ranks #1 in the UK and among the world's top 10 institutions for Agriculture and Forestry. Its internationally triple-accredited Henley Business School (holding AACSB, AMBA, and EQUIS accreditations) operates world-class finance dealing rooms at the ICMA Centre and an idyllic executive riverside estate at Greenlands in Henley-on-Thames. The university's flagship 130-hectare Whiteknights parkland campus features Harris Garden and Whiteknights Lake, creating one of Britain's most scenic academic environments, while its historic London Road Victorian campus accommodates architecture and education, complemented by an international branch campus in EduCity, Malaysia.
