Chat with University of Salford

Salford is a diverse, ambitious and thriving University – our community encompasses over 23,000 students, 2500 staff and 170,000 alumni, with a student body from over 130 different countries.

We’re located in Greater Manchester in the Northwest of England. Our main Peel Park campus is just minutes away from Manchester city centre and, across the way, we have the Frederick Road campus that is home to our healthcare courses. We are also the only university with a MediaCity campus, sitting right next to neighbours such as ITV and the BBC.

Industry connections are at the heart of everything we do. We form strong partnerships with businesses and organisations from all sectors, working hand-in-hand with them to develop courses that are up-to-date and relevant to today’s challenges, helping you to graduate confident and ready to step into your chosen career.

We are leading in areas including health, energy, media and the built environment and have completed impressive work with business and industry partners. For example, our base at Media City encourages creative collaboration between students, specialist technicians, academics and the media production industry.

We invest heavily in our own campus facilities for the benefit of our students. For example, we have the new £65 million Science, Engineering and Environment building, which is totally electric-powered and supported by 154 solar panels. We also have an Energy House, where research teams can test out the energy efficiency of a home; and an anachronic chamber, which is so quiet that you can start to hear the sound of your own heartbeat.

Salford is not only a great place to study, it’s also a great place to live, work and for future prospects.
