Greater Manchester is the largest student city-region in the UK outside of London and has one of the largest student populations in Europe. There are around 96,000 students currently studying here, of which 24,000 are related to health and social care.

Health Innovation Manchester has formed a partnership between the city’s four universities – the University of Salford, University of Bolton, Manchester Metropolitan University, and The University of Manchester – to maximise Greater Manchester’s research and academic capacity and capability.

Through this partnership, we will build opportunities to deliver life-long learning for our health and care workforce throughout their career, ensuring we provide the very best care to patients and attract and retain top talent.
