Manchester has a long tradition of excellence in Higher Education. UMIST can trace its roots back to 1824 and the formation of the Manchester Mechanics' Institute, whilst The Victoria University of Manchester was founded as Owens College in 1851.
After 100 years of working together, these two great institutions are formally combining to form a single university, coming into being on 22 October 2004.
The University of Manchester has an exceptional record of generating and sharing new ideas and innovations.
Many of the advances of the 20th century began at the University, such as the work by Rutherford leading to the splitting of the atom and the developments of the world's first modern computer in 1948.
Today, we are one of the world's top centres for biomedical research, leading the search for new treatments for life-threatening diseases. We are also at the forefront of new discoveries in science and engineering.
Manchester aims to be one of the top 25 research Universities in the world.
The University is also applying its expertise and knowledge to solving some of the major social, economic and environmental problems confronting mankind around the globe.
The University's total expenditure on research in 2003/2004 was £269.5 million.
The quality, breadth and volume of research activity is unparalleled in the UK as indicated in the results of the independent Research Assessment Exercise (RAE).
By 2015, The University of Manchester aims to hold a world-class leading research profile and be among the top 25 universities in the world.
The University of Manchester is committed to an environment that values and celebrates the diverse nature of its population, which is key to the vision of Manchester 2015, 'The Strategic Plan of the University of Manchester'. We will take positive steps to achieve equality in the workplace and we are committed to both meeting and exceeding our obligations under equality legislation.
The academic structure of the University of Manchester is made up of Faculties and Schools. There are four Faculties, each of which is divided into a number of Schools
The University of Manchester is at the heart of a dynamic and expanding city that attracts an increasing number of students, visitors and businesses every year.
Life certainly is for living in Manchester. It's a lively, cosmopolitan city offering you an enviable mix of multicultural attractions.
Buzzing with events, clubs and bars (often with great student discounts and special offers), you'll never be short of things to do.
