Campus tours

Campus tours are a great way to learn more about the University and decide if Manchester is the place for you.

Guided tours of campus

You’ll be guided around campus by a Student Ambassador who’ll be able to answer your questions and includes a presentation on teaching and learning and the student experience.

You’ll be able to visit some student spaces, such as our main Learning Commons and the Students’ Union, but we’ll not be able to visit individual academic departments due to the size of our tour groups.
