Basic Information
The University of
Manchester (UoM)
is a public research university in the city of Manchester, England, formed in 2004 by the merger of the University of Manchester
Institute of Science and Technology which had
its ultimate origins in the Mechanics' Institute established in the city in
1824 and the Victoria University of Manchester founded by charter in 1904 after the dissolution of the
federal Victoria University but originating in Owens College, founded in
Manchester in 1851. he University of Manchester is ranked 29th in the world by QS World University Rankings 2016. In the 2015 Academic Ranking of World

Campus
The university's main site
contains most of its facilities and is often referred to as campus, however Manchester is
not a campus-university as the
concept is commonly understood. It is centrally located in the city and its
buildings are integrated into the fabric of Manchester, with non-university
buildings and major roads between.
The campus occupies an area shaped roughly like a boot: the foot
of which is aligned roughly south-west to north-east and is joined to the
broader southern part of the boot by an area of overlap between former UMIST
and former VUM buildings. It comprises two parts:
- North
campus or Sackville Street Campus,
- South
campus or Oxford Road Campus,.
