Our global centres
The University of Manchester has four global centres. Each has an established international presence and strong links with the local business community.
For more than 25 years we've been providing transnational education. We have forged strong world-leading partnerships and developed centres of learning across four continents.
Our centres in Dubai, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Singapore offer a growing range of online and blended learning programmes, supporting MBA students learning by combining face-to-face and digital activities.
These physical centres also provide students with inspiring spaces to study and collaborate through networking events.
They help to continually grow our global network of almost 500,000 alumni across 190 countries.
