SGS Berkeley Green UTC is a university technical college in Berkeley, Gloucestershire, England. It opened in September 2017,[4] and is part of SGS Academy Trust (South Gloucestershire and Stroud Academy Trust).[3] It specialises in engineering, cybersecurity and digital technologies,[5] as well as STEM more broadly.
The UTC's sponsors include the University of Gloucestershire, Microsoft, Cisco, CGI, GCHQ, the NCSC, and SGS College.[6][7] The college was formally opened by Princess Anne on 5 February 2019.[8][9]
From March 2019 to May 2021, the UTC was the home of the Bloodhound LSR (land speed record) project.[10] The vehicle was then moved to the Coventry Transport Museum, due to lack of funding for further development.[11]
