University of Manchester
Twenty-five Nobel Prize winners have either studied or conducted some of their work at the Alliance Manchester Business School, including Ernest Rutherford who is known for his work on splitting the atom. Situated in the heart of Manchester, the campus has a mixture of traditional Victorian buildings and more modern architecture that sit comfortably alongside each other creating an exciting and eclectic environment.

Proud to be part of a small and select number of institutions worldwide – just 1%
– who have triple-accreditation status, AMBA, AACSB and EQUIS.
