Liverpool John Moores University (abbreviated LJMU) is a public research university in the city of Liverpool, England. The university can trace its origins to the Liverpool Mechanics' School of Arts, established in 1823.[3] This later merged to become Liverpool Polytechnic. In 1992, following an Act of Parliament, the Liverpool Polytechnic became what is now Liverpool John Moores University.[4] It is named after Sir John Moores, a local businessman and philanthropist, who donated to the university's precursor institutions.
The university had 25,050 students in 2019/20, of which 20,105 are undergraduate students and 4,945 are postgraduate,[2] making it the 30th largest university in the UK by total student population.
It is a member of the University Alliance, the Northern Consortium and the European University Association.
