History, Affiliations and Rankings 

Woolwich Polytechnic, the United Kingdom's second-oldest polytechnic was established in Woolwich in 1891, giving birth to the university. It was founded by Frank Didden and opened to students in October 1891, with Quintin Hogg's backing and beliefs. It began as a combination of education, social, and religious purposes, similar to Hogg's pioneering business on London's Regent Street. Thames Polytechnic was founded in 1970 when Woolwich Polytechnic and a portion of Hammersmith College of Art and Building amalgamated to become Thames Polytechnic. The Major administration gave Thames Polytechnic (together with many other polytechnics) university status in 1992, and the institution was renamed the University of Greenwich in 1993.
