大学概况University Profile

The University of Manchester has embarked on a £1bn, 10-year plan to create a world-class campus. By 2022, there will be a single campus with new student facilities and buildings for teaching and research, as well as major improvements to public spaces.  

The first phase is now underway and will include a new Manchester Engineering Campus Development, new centres for the School of Law and Manchester Business School, a major refurbishment of the university library, and a bigger and better students' union.

The university is also spending several million pounds to bring benefits to the local area, capitalising on improvements due to be made to Oxford Road, where the university is based. The first projects, due to complete in the next 12 months, will see the opening of the Manchester Cancer Research Centre and the National Graphene Institute, as well as the refurbishment of the Whitworth Art Gallery. The overriding aims are to improve the student experience and reduce carbon emissions.

The university remains in the top 30 in our league table, despite a fall of two places - and is one of the small number of universities whose world ranking beats or comes close to matching their domestic one.

With global league tables focusing mainly on research and the domestic variety designed with undergraduates in mind, the contrast suggests that research rather than teaching is Manchester’s strength.

But outstanding teaching is one of the three goals in the university’s strategy to be among the top 25 in the world by 2020. It has already seen an improvement in previously disappointing student satisfaction ratings – slightly up again this year to 81.9% but still among the worst performers in the top 30 of our league table – and has set aside £20m to attract top academics.

The new recruits will join three Nobel prizewinners on the staff. Professors Andre Geim and Professor Konstantin Novoselov brought the all-time complement of laureates to 25 when they took the physics prize in 2010. Sir John Sulston, who chairs the Institute of Science, Ethics and Innovation, won the prize for physiology and medicine in 2002.

The merger with the neighbouring University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (Umist) in 2004 created the biggest conventional university in the UK outside the federal University of London.

One result was the largest engineering school in the UK, with a £20m budget and 1,200 students. A £400m building and refurbishment programme, the largest ever in UK higher education, came as part of the package.

The new “Learning Commons” building opened in 2012, the first phase providing more than 1,000 flexible learning spaces, high quality IT facilities, and a hub for student-centred activities and learning support services.

Close to the university’s iconic Jodrell Bank telescope, in Cheshire, Manchester will host the control centre for what will be the world’s largest radio telescope. Manchester was among the top ten universities in the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise, with almost two-thirds of its submission considered world-leading or internationally excellent.

Manchester again attracted more applications than any university in the UK in 2013, taking an additional 750 undergraduates compared with the previous year. The university has been trying to broaden its intake, with a particular focus on increasing recruitment from the city and its surrounding area.

It is now close to the national average for its courses and entry qualifications for the recruitment of state-educated students or those from working-class homes. And it exceeded the expected proportion of recruits from areas with a poor track record in sending people into higher education.

The Manchester Leadership Programme and the University College for Interdisciplinary Learning encourage students to think beyond academia and towards their impact as citizens.

The university’s score for graduate prospects improves significantly this year, with surveys of employers frequently placing Manchester among their favourite recruiting grounds, helping to produce an unrivalled network of industrial sponsorship. Employers have also rated Manchester’s careers service the best at any university.

The first phase of a new chemical engineering facility, with a sophisticated industrial pilot plant, as well as teaching laboratories, opened in 2011. The £39m research centre dedicated to biomedical science is one of the largest in Europe.

A £60m development is creating a new hotel, conference venue, and executive education centre for Manchester Business School. The business school is among the strengths of the merged institution, as is the medical school, which was rewarded for impressive teaching ratings with extra places. A new teaching block helps to cater for 2,000 undergraduates following a problem-based curriculum.

The city’s famed youth culture and the university’s position at the heart of a huge student precinct help to ensure keen competition for places – and hence high entry standards – in most subjects.

There are first-rate sports facilities and the university sports teams are also high achievers, frequently ranking near the top of the BUCS league.

The university has 21 residences around the city, centred on Fallowfield and Victoria Park, but with tens of thousands of students from Manchester Metropolitan and Salford universities also at large, there are large areas of the city that are given over to almost exclusively privately-rented student accommodation. You will never be short of anyone from whom to borrow some milk.

学生观点Student view

Charlie Cook, students’ union officer

First impressions

Huge, overwhelming and manic, which means there is always something to do.

Worst feature

Everyone rents too early and we are trying to encourage them not to rush into it: there is plenty of time to get a better deal.

Making a difference

Coming from a rural, conservative background to a liberal, political university really does transform your awareness.

Deal clincher

For me, the political history of the city is exciting and infectious;  you’re in a place where you can realise your passions.
