Below you can find out more about the campus and buildings you\u2019ll study in, along with some of the heritage heroes who previously walked the corridors of FSE. We\u2019ve also included links to articles about some of the groundbreaking research we\u2019re leading on \u2013 carried out by both our academics and our students.

The campus is right on the edge of the city centre, just a short walk from Sackville Gardens and Canal Street, as well as Piccadilly Station.<\/p>\n<p>At the centre of the campus is Sackville Street Building \u2013 a magnificent listed terracotta beauty that began life as the Manchester School of Technology.

Many are named after the scientists and engineers who made history while working here. You can read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/2019\/03\/19\/north-campus-the-names-behind-the-buildings\/\">more about them here<\/a> and in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/2019\/04\/16\/the-names-behind-the-buildings-ii-the-ferranti-building\/\">this article<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, students and academics from the Departments of Materials; Mechanical, Aerospace and Civil Engineering (MACE); Electrical and Electronic Engineering, and Chemical Engineering and Analytical Science (CEAS), in addition to the Dalton Nuclear Institute and the BP International Centre for Advanced Materials, will move to the purpose-built Manchester Engineering Campus. This custom-designed development will provide the perfect space for our engineers to research, innovate and collaborate.

Among the legends who have worked and studied here are father of modern computing Alan Turing, atom-splitter Ernest Rutherford, war hero Beatrice Shilling and star physicist Brian Cox.<\/p>\n<p>And then there are the legends you may not have heard of \u2013 like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/2019\/03\/04\/mother-of-the-sea-how-kathleen-drew-baker-saved-sushi\/\">Kathleen Drew-Baker<\/a>, whose work revolutionised the Japanese nori industry and earned her the nickname \u2018Mother of the Sea\u2019. Or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/2019\/02\/11\/dame-jocelyn-bell-burnell-our-science-superstar\/\">Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell<\/a>, who jointly discovered pulsars \u2013 a discovery akin to locating a single grain of rice in the Sahara Desert.<\/p>\n<p>Then there\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/2019\/01\/28\/sir-william-boyd-dawkins-an-extraordinary-study\/\">Sir William Boyd Dawkins<\/a>, former curator of Manchester Museum who discovered the earliest example of cave art to be found in the UK. And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/2018\/09\/17\/meet-manchesters-most-inspiring-alumni\/\">Sir James Joule<\/a> who discovered the relationship between heat and mechanical work \u2013 all while managing a brewery.

Across the Faculty, our students and academics are working on research that will help answer grand challenges and resolve global conundrums.<\/p>\n<p>For example, using graphene \u2013 another Manchester discovery \u2013 our researchers have developed a sieve that can be used to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manchester.ac.uk\/discover\/news\/graphene-sieve-turns-seawater-into-drinking-water\/\">desalinate seawater<\/a> and make it drinkable. Meanwhile, our chemists have established a way to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/2019\/04\/11\/on-the-scent-how-one-woman-sniffed-out-parkinsons-diagnosis\/\">diagnose Parkinson\u2019s<\/a> far earlier than currently possible.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, our engineers have built a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/2019\/05\/14\/how-going-flapless-could-revolutionise-air-travel\/\">flapless plane<\/a> that could revolutionise the future of air travel. And our computer scientists are working on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/2018\/11\/08\/manchesters-most-important-brain\/\">world\u2019s largest neuromorphic supercomputer<\/a>, \u2018Spiking Neural Network Architecture\u2019, which has brought us one step closer to artificially mimicking the human brain.<\/p>\n<h3>Buzzing city<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-535 size-uom-post-size\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2017\/08\/Manc-800x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Of course, your time at university will consist of far more than lectures, reading and project work \u2013 and the city of Manchester will be a huge part of your life here.
