Student spotlights

Our students share their experiences of studying Philosophy at Manchester.

  • Tom Danaher - student at the School of Social Sciences, The University of Manchester

    Tom Danaher

    Tom has witnessed a lot of investment in the University and wider city. See if he was right to go with his gut feeling and choose a city-centre Uni over a campus.

  • Niall O'Connor - student at the School of Social Sciences, The University of Manchester

    Niall O'Connor

    Niall loves the analytical challenges that come with studying philosophy. In his second year he chose to study a language, took an introductory course in politics and tackled a module from the School of Law.
