Studying at the University of Salford is an exciting experience, and our industry-focused courses prepare you for success. You will be taught by staff who are experts in their field, and you will put your learning into practice in real-world settings, such as through placements, live projects, field trips, or hearing from guest speakers.
Salford is at the centre of relationships being developed between Bangladesh and the Greater Manchester region here in the UK. There is a large Bangladeshi community in the area and we are pleased to welcome a growing number of students from Bangladesh to our University each year.
A new Bangladesh cultural society has just been started through the University of Salford Students’ Union, which offers social activities and celebrates the culture.
