The University of Manchester is dedicated to supporting organisations, large and small, in achieving their research and innovation goals.
We offer access to leading expertise, skilled students, cutting-edge collaborative research, consultancy, facilities and contract research. We recognise that the challenges the world is facing are great – but so is our resolve.
We work openly and transparently, making it easy for you to engage. We are agile, seek to understand the realities of your role, and collaborate as peers to build solutions together, offering the specific expertise, equipment and innovation to craft focussed solutions. We consider all the experts in our community, bringing together interdisciplinary teams to craft end-to-end support. We share our knowledge, developing durable, cost-effective solutions. AI, Engineering Biology, Future Telecommunications, Semiconductors and Quantum encompass the five priority technologies listed in the UK Government’s 2023 Science and Technology framework. They are transformative research areas which will shape the next decade, and at Manchester we have the capabilities to support your advances in each of them.
Our researchers are here because they are determined to help tackle society’s biggest challenges. By working effectively with you, we can translate solutions into real-world impacts.
"We provide our partners with access to additional skills, capabilities and knowledge — in a way that is truly collaborative. By working as an extension of their team, we can match their needs with the appropriate talent, research and equipment. Empowering them to accelerate transformative strategies...or simply solve a problem in their business as usual."
