It’s a great university but would benefit from lectures being observed by to evaluate quality. Some lectures go way above and beyond and others hardly do the bare minimum then are shocked when everyone scores poorly in a test.

Manchester is an amazing student city.
My experience here has been all I could of wished for and more! Lecturers and management are very helpful and respond promptly to any student concerns. Career development has been second-to-none here, there were systems in place to help with strengthening my CV, gaining relevant experience and acquiring real-world applicable skills. UOM is recognised as the most targeted uni by the top 100 UK employers, and have found this to be true when looking for jobs, graduate schemes and opportunities following my graduation. Not to mention being ranked a top 20 university in the entire world!
Was much better pre-Covid but has recently been a very negative experience. In previous years we have had good clinical contact and support. However online learning is not very good, we have been expected to self teach from power points with no audio.
This Uni is not concerned about you. It is only concerned about your money. Overall awful material, awful lecturers, awful support. Awful experience, I wished I've never gone here and haven't wasted my 2 years
The nursing course at manchester is much more demanding than some other university courses for nursing that my friends are studying. There is lots of work and knowledge to learn which can sometimes stop me having the uni experience. I enjoy the nightlife in manchester but i feel as the uni is so large there is less of a community spirit compared to smaller universities
Had an incredible three years at Manchester studying history. City life, sport and the university itself were amazing. Feel I really came to belong in Manchester.
I love the place, there are compromises, but it's home.
University of Manchester is one of a kind. I love it, it inspires me to aim high. the sky is the limit
It's a great university as a whole. Lots of academic opportunities (e.g. year in industry) and social opportunities. As a whole, great teaching. Fun city to live in.
It is good Uni but there are too many foreign lecturers who do not speak English fluently and so it becomes difficult trying to understand them. Other than that everything is fine.
Course is excellent. Shopping in the city is great, facilities are great, very modern but the toilets could be cleaned more. Su is ok and the support are very helpful and flexible, as I have a son. Not sure about job prospects
Course was ok and the accommodation was very poor. City is life very good as well as the facilities. Clubs and supports are very good. Will find it tough to get work.
