The University of New Hampshire at Manchester (or UNH-M) was established in 1985 as the sixth college of the University of New Hampshire. Located in Manchester, UNH-M provides associate's, bachelor's, masters's, and doctoral degrees, with special emphasis on programs which address urban issues.

Each semester approximately 1,500 students commute to the city campus to take classes in the University Center building, where the college moved during the 1999 through 2001 academic years from its old campus on Hackett Hill near Hooksett, New Hampshire.

University Center is located at 400 Commercial Street on the banks of the Merrimack River in Manchester's historic millyard. The 75,000 square-foot building, built in 1880, formerly housed the machine shop of the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company.
