WE SUPPORT AND EMPOWER,
YOU SUCCEED.
The Union supports every student at Manchester Met to succeed in every aspect of life at university
LIFE
A University experience beyond academic study
LEARNING
Helping you to succeed through your qualifications
BELONGING
Creating opportunities for you to discover who you are
MORE THAN ACADEMIC SUCCESS
We support you through everything in life — from advice to empower your independence, to finding friends that will last a lifetime, and opportunities that will shape your future
WHO WE ARE
The Union is an independent charity that works to represent the needs and views of Manchester Metropolitan University students
Every Manchester Met student is automatically a member of The Union and we're here to represent and support all our members. Led by our team of elected Student Officers, we make sure that students' voices are heard and that the needs, and views of students are listened to and considered by the University. We know a University experience is so much more than just getting a qualification at the end, so we work in partnership with the University to enrich every aspect of students’ lives. We're also a charity and invest every penny we make from our services back into the organisation — so the profit made from you buying a burger in the bar could be re-invested as a society grant, added to the campaign fund, or used to buy the free sanitary products that are in the bathrooms.
OUR PEOPLE
We have a team of brilliant and talented people to support our Officers to ensure our students get the best possible experience out of their membership
MEET THE TEAM
REPRESENTATION AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL
Every year students elect a team of student officer to lead The Union and represent them
MEET THE OFFICERS
MAKING POSITIVE CHANGE
We empower students to make positive change in their university life, home life and local communities
CAMPAIGNS
We empower students and Officers to pioneer change when they're passionate about something — from things as small as a new type of bin in The Union, or as big as lobbying for a new law
VOLUNTEERING
We work with loads of charities to find incredible volunteering opportunities for students, which can make their time at University become so much more than just a qualification
COMMUNITY
Students can play a huge part in a local community, and we work with local charities and projects so that students can get involved and make a difference in the local community they're part of
