Soton is in an entirely different league to MMU.
Textile making isn't an academic discipline, and historically would not have been taught at a university at all. If you want high quality academic research and rigour, you're far more likely to find it somewhere other than MMU.
This is an unfortunate truth, but a truth nonetheless.
- tialaramex 7y agoIt's definitely true that "historically" textile making wouldn't have been taught at a university. Sure looks like a real academic discipline to me though, at least as much as say, law (maritime law being another of Soton's specialities) or indeed electronics. It so happens our culture prizes knowledge of electronics very highly and the development of new textiles much less so, but it could be otherwise.
