Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant
Manchester Metropolitan University signed the Armed Forces Covenant in 2019. We are committed to our outreach work with the Armed Forces community, ensuring all serving personnel, veterans, and their families know what opportunities are available for them in higher education. We also support our colleagues who serve in the reserves and have a commitment to research in this area.
