Alliance Manchester Business School - South America Centre

Alliance Manchester Business School was founded in 1965 and is one of the UK’s first business schools. In 2015, we celebrated our 50th anniversary.

We became the largest business and management school in the UK in 2004 when we merged with The Victoria University of Manchester's School of Accounting and Finance, UMIST's School of Management and the Programme in Research in Science and Technology.

We are a full-service business school, providing industry-focused education to undergraduates, postgraduates and executives across the globe.

Original Thinking Applied is at the heart of what we do - turning theory into practice across all our activity, through our programmes, consultancy, and research.

We inform, inspire and engage with the business community through our corporate engagement activities and we work to support communities through our social responsibility agenda.
