New Business School Building Consultation Event

The University of Salford is launching a community consultation to share proposed plans and generate feedback for a new Business School building, in what is set to be the University’s most significant investment to-date into its campus estate.

 

Taking place on Wednesday 23 September between 15:00-19:00 in the reception of the University’s Maxwell building, the event provides an opportunity for students, colleagues and the wider Salford community to view the plans, ask any questions and share feedback, ahead of the planning application being submitted later this year.

 

The site located at 43-44 The Crescent in Salford has been earmarked for the new building, with plans forming part of the University’s ongoing Salford Campus Connectivity Plan, which is the most ambitious expansion of its estate to date. The proposal is still in the process of full sign off by the University, but the decision has been taken to proceed with the consultation in order to accommodate timescales.

 

The new home of Salford Business School will also sit within the £2.5bn, 240-acre Crescent Salford masterplan being delivered by ECF, Salford City Council and the University of Salford.

 

Offering approximately 7,400m2 of flexible, innovative teaching and research spaces, the building is designed to foster collaboration and support new ways of learning and working.
