OUR NOTHINGOFFLIMITSDAY

Welcome to the University of Salford!

The Power of Us starts here, in a university and a city full of potential. You see it in the way people learn, adapt, and keep moving forward. In the way we back each other, collaborate and combine our strengths to make progress.

Here at Salford, people can go further than they might have expected. When we do it together, we build ambition and confidence. Ideas grow. New possibilities open. And the big challenges the world keeps giving us, become easier to embrace and overcome.

At Salford, we are all part of a university that looks out for you. We’re people that get stuck in. It’s a place that builds what’s next.

Across our three campuses, we’re bursting with state-of-the-art learning facilities so you can really immerse yourself in your chosen field. We aren’t stopping either, our Thrive Health and Wellbeing Centre is due to open at the end of 2026 and along with housing new teaching and research facilities

for students, it aims to increase accessibility to healthcare for the wider Salford community.

University is about much more than studying and at Salford there’s plenty to do outside of the classroom. If you’ve got a passion for something, we’ve got a society ready to welcome you. With Manchester right next door, you’ll never be short of things to do from culture to shopping; music to sport and cafés to nightlife – there’s something for everyone!

As you explore our campus today, we hope you feel part of our Salford community; that you’re inspired by the enthusiasm and expertise of our staff, and that you feel the passion and warmth of our students. Enjoy your day and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

OUR CAMPUS

Our Open Days take place across our three campuses, including MediaCity. The campuses are just a short distance away from each other and the location of your subject presentation and facilities tour will depend on the course you are interested in. You can find out where each course is based on pages 8-29.

We know that if it’s your first time visiting us, it might feel a bit daunting trying to find your way around. You’ll find our friendly Student Ambassadors dotted about the campus ready and willing to point you in the right direction, as well as our staff at the check-in points.

PEEL PARK CAMPUS

Our Peel Park campus is home to a wide range of courses from Business and Law topics to courses in Computing, Engineering and Technology subject areas. Our New Adelphi building houses our art, design, music, performance, fashion and creative courses along with a 300-seat theatre.

FREDERICK ROAD CAMPUS

All our health and social care courses are taught on our Frederick Road campus. It hosts a range of different facilities including simulation suites for our nursing and midwifery courses, a radiography centre, human performance laboratory and working clinics for podiatry, prosthetics and orthotics and sport and rehabilitation.

MEDIACITY

As the home of TV, digital and creative busineses in the north, including the BBC and ITV, our MediaCity campus is home to our film, media, gaming and journalism.

CAR PARKING

If you’re travelling by car to our Open Day and your course of interest is based at our Peel Park campus you can find car parking at Irwell Place car park (M5 4WT) or Lowry and Delaney car parks (M5 4NJ).

If your course of interest is based at our Frederick Road campus, you can park at our Frederick Road multi-storey car park (M6 6PU).

If your course is based at MediaCity, we recommend parking at one of our Peel Park car parks and getting the free shuttle bus over to MediaCity.

SHUTTLE BUS

You'll find the bus stop between New Adelphi and Salford Crescent train station on our Peel Park campus.

If you’re heading to MediaCity today, the first shuttle bus will leave Peel Park campus at 9.15am and the final bus back from MediaCity will be at 4.15pm. Buses run every 15 minutes.

If you're interested in viewing the John Lester and Eddie Colman accommodation site, the first bus will leave New Adelphi at 10am and they'll run every 20 minutes after that. In order to see accommodation we would recommend getting the bus no later than 3pm from Peel Park.
