Launchpad
This year has seen a change in the way we work and at the University of Salford we have been working on a new way of keeping you up-to-date with what is going on in and around campus. We bring you our 'new look' online Launchpad.
Discover more about our University with some of our Salford Successes and Student Stories. You will also find information on outreach and collaboration opportunities, as well as key information and resources for teachers and careers advisors.
We want to make sure that this resource is as beneficial for you as possible, so we'd be grateful if you could spare five minutes to complete our survey. Click here to take part.
Applicant Support Sessions
We know that in the current situation, your students can’t come along and visit us on campus or listen to a talk at your school or college, so we've added a range of video presentations to our website to help introduce your students to key topics around going to university.
Undergraduate Events
We run a range of events throughout the year to give your students plenty of opportunity to explore our University, learn about the courses we have on offer and discover more about student life at Salford, from large scale Open Days to smaller, bespoke virtual presentations.
What's new?
We have a range of new courses available for 2021 intake that your students may be interested in. See the accordion below for links to the new courses.
