About our school
Based at our green Peel Park campus, only 5 minutes away from Manchester city centre and linked to MediaCity, Salford Business School is at the heart of the dynamic and ever-evolving Greater Manchester business and digital sector.
Teaching takes place in various buildings, including Maxwell, Lady Hale, and Chapman buildings. These modern spaces offer stylish lecture theatres equipped with state-of-the-art technology and large-screen displays. Lady Hale is notable for housing the mock courtroom where the mooting team hones their skills in case presentation and debate.
