Manchester City Centre
In 2019, we were once again ranked in the QS World Top 100 centres for architecture and built environment study, and with our green campus a mile away from Manchester city centre, you’ll be living in one of the largest property and construction sectors outside of London.

Whether performing comedy, climbing through the countryside or raising awareness of cancer in young people, you will find a society of likeminded students where you are able to relax, socialise and enhance your skillset.
