Manchester is one of Britain's largest metropolitan conurbations, with 2.6 million people living within the central boundaries and over 7 million in Manchester's surrounding areas. As you would expect of Britain's second city, Manchester is the throbbing urban centre of the North West boasting a number of leading business organisations, leading retailers and entertainment venues. The city's skyline reflects both its industrial heritage and modern success with buildings such as the Urbis museum and the Manchester cathedral both located within the cathedral gardens area of city centre.

The Manchester Metropolitan University is the fourth largest university in Britain and lessons take place in the modern classrooms of the impressive Geoffrey Manton Building. All meals will be in the light and spacious cafeteria of the University.
Accommodation is provided in single study bedrooms with shared bathrooms and large kitchen areas in Cavendish Halls.
