As part of a plan to consolidate existing facilities, it is anticipated that MMU’s Faculty of Health, Psychology and Social Care and Institute of Education, together with other ancillary and complementary uses, would relocate from their current locations at the Elizabeth Gaskell campus in Rusholme and the Didsbury campus, to Birley Fields in Hulme A total of 535 staff and some 6,370 students are currently employed or enrolled within the Faculty of Health, Psychology and Social Care and the Institute of Education at the Elizabeth Gaskell and Didsbury campuses. It is anticipated that these staff and student numbers would be remain constant following the relocation of the campuses, and the new Birley Fields campus would therefore cater for approximately 6,900 students and staff. Investment of £120 million is proposed in delivering a new ‘green campus’ at the Birley Fields site. The campus is proposed to accommodate around 22,000 sq. m of new development including shared general teaching accommodation, specialist teaching spaces, a shared student support/learning hub and residences for 450-900 students. The Birley Fields campus proposals also make provision for a number of additional developments/facilities which, whilst not yet confirmed, would add to and complement the core academic and student residential accommodation. It is proposed that a new Civic Centre will be developed to include a health centre, district library, enterprise centre, adult education facility, and citizen’s advice bureau amongst others. Study Aims and Approach The study aims to assess the likely impacts of the proposed new campus on Hulme and Moss Side across three broad categories: Economic impacts - We quantify the annual stable impact of the proposed campus in terms of jobs supported and gross value added by taking into account the direct, indirect, induced and multiplier impacts of the scheme. Social, business perception and regeneration impacts - We identify the qualitative impacts that the development of the new Birley Fields in Hulme campus is likely to have on the local area in terms of the local community, physical regeneration and perceptions of the area as a place to do business, through consultation with a variety of local organisations and stakeholders. Educational impacts - The move to the new campus can impact on the educational achievement and aspirations of the local residents and we establish the potential for encouraging more young people currently in education to remain in education for longer, and to go into higher education; and for adults who may have underachieved or left education early, to re-engage and gain more qualifications. Economic Impacts Direct Impact The direct impact is the number of jobs provided by MMU at the new campus. MMU proposes that there will be 535 jobs located at the new campus, or 430 full time equivalent jobs. Of these, 382 would be staff in professional occupations including academic and managerial positions, and 153 would be administrative, support and maintenance staff. This is in line with the existing staff numbers at Elizabeth Gaskell and Didsbury campuses. Roger Tym & Partners with Phil Mervyn Associates i M9336, April 2009 MMU Birley Fields in Hulme Campus Impact Assessment Executive Summary Despite no overall increase in the number of jobs provided by the university as a result of the campus relocation, the jobs relocated to Birley Fields will be new to Hulme and Moss Side and should improve employment opportunities for the residents of Hulme and Moss Side. We estimate that 31 jobs, or 26 full time equivalent jobs, at the new campus would be occupied by local Hulme and Moss Side residents, with 13, or 11 full time equivalent jobs, of these in professional positions and 18, or 15 full time equivalent jobs, in admin, support and maintenance positions. The construction of the MMU Birley Fields campus would support

  • Hulme, Moss Side and Rusholme Neighbourhood Mosaic Profile
    Hulme, Moss Side and Rusholme Neighbourhood Mosaic Profile Summary • There are just over 21,300 households in the Hulme, Moss Side and Rusholme Neighbourhood. • The neighbourhood contains a range of different household types clustered within different parts of the area. Moss Side is dominated by relatively deprived, transient single people renting low cost accommodation whereas Hulme and Rusholme wards contain larger concentrations of relatively affluent young people and students. • Over 60% of households in Moss Side contain people whose social circumstances suggest that they may need high or very high levels of support to help them manage their own health and prevent them becoming high users of acute healthcare services in the future. However, the proportion of households in the other parts of the neighbourhood estimated to require this levels of support is much lower. This reflects the distribution of different types of household within the locality as described above. Introduction This profile provides more detailed information about the people who live in different parts of the neighbourhood. It draws heavily on the insights that can be gained from the Mosaic population segmentation tool. What is Mosaic? Mosaic is a population segmentation tool that uses a range of data and analytical methods to provide insights into the lifestyles and behaviours of the public in order to help make more informed decisions. Over 850 million pieces of information across 450 different types of data are condensed using the latest analytical techniques to identify 15 summary groups and 66 detailed types that are easy to interpret and understand. Mosaic’s consistent segmentation can also provide a ‘common currency’ across partners within the city.

  • A History of the University of Manchester Since 1951
    Pullan2004jkt 10/2/03 2:43 PM Page 1 University ofManchester A history ofthe HIS IS THE SECOND VOLUME of a history of the University of Manchester since 1951. It spans seventeen critical years in T which public funding was contracting, student grants were diminishing, instructions from the government and the University Grants Commission were multiplying, and universities feared for their reputation in the public eye. It provides a frank account of the University’s struggle against these difficulties and its efforts to prove the value of university education to society and the economy. This volume describes and analyses not only academic developments and changes in the structure and finances of the University, but the opinions and social and political lives of the staff and their students as well. It also examines the controversies of the 1970s and 1980s over such issues as feminism, free speech, ethical investment, academic freedom and the quest for efficient management. The author draws on official records, staff and student newspapers, and personal interviews with people who experienced the University in very 1973–90 different ways. With its wide range of academic interests and large student population, the University of Manchester was the biggest unitary university in the country, and its history illustrates the problems faced by almost all British universities. The book will appeal to past and present staff of the University and its alumni, and to anyone interested in the debates surrounding higher with MicheleAbendstern Brian Pullan education in the late twentieth century. A history of the University of Manchester 1951–73 by Brian Pullan with Michele Abendstern is also available from Manchester University Press.
