The University of Glasgow is known for its extraordinary teaching and research for over 566 years. Being a member of the prestigious Russell group of UK research universities, the University of Glasgow takes pride in its past achievements and current research. Glasgow is ranked in the world top 100 universities and is the Scottish University of the year 2018 (The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide).
Some of the notable Glasgow University alumni include Adam Smith (the father of economics), Lord Kelvin (popular physicist and engineer), Nicola Sturgeon (First Minister of Scotland) and Edwin Morgan (Scottish poet).
Students studying at Glasgow can explore a host of opportunities, cultural attractions and world-class events, both at the University and across the vibrant city. The University is home to nearly 26,000 undergraduate and postgraduate students, from over 140 countries world-wide, with 600 courses on offer.
The international student support team at the University takes good care of students assisting them with orientation programmes, academic enquiries, life in the UK and the payment of tuition fees. Throughout their studies, students can also access support from the ‘Careers Service’, including a dedicated internship hub offering 350+ internships each academic year. With 95.9% of graduates either being in employment or further study a year after leaving the University of Glasgow, students can feel confident that their degree will leave them well prepared for making the jump into the world of work.
The city of Glasgow adds to the charm of studying at the University with plenty of picturesque places to visit, from the ‘clockwork orange’ (subway system), sport grounds, retail and entertainment centres, 90 parks and public gardens, to world-class museums with works by Dali and Monet. Students studying at the University of Glasgow follow the footsteps of those who have been inspirational since the inception of the University in 1451.
Glasgow has invested GBP1 billion to build students a campus fit for today and the future. Some of the new campus developments include the Learning & Teaching Hub and the Research Hub.
This flagship development will be a creative environment, combining flexible study and social learning space with multi-styled and technology-enabled teaching. Students will have round the clock access to this building.
This Hub will provide the University, for the first time, a space for nurturing interdisciplinary thematic research "at scale" - crossing traditional boundaries and established ways of working.
The Research Hub will home an ‘Innovation Accelerator’ space. This supported environment will provide high quality office and laboratory facilities for spin-out companies, entrepreneurs and the co-location of corporate research and development teams to work with wider university programmes.
Glasgow ranked 4th in the Russell Group for teaching, as per NSS 2017. The University’s learning and teaching is shaped by its research-rich environment.
Motivated, vibrant, diverse community of learners and teachers work in partnership at Glasgow to develop independent, skilled and highly valued graduates with the confidence to make positive change in society.
Glasgow’s teaching practice, processes and facilities engage students in innovative, globally relevant and challenging curricula.
And its teaching community is a diverse group of individuals from a broad geographical and socio-economic background, who enter the University on the basis of aptitude and potential.
Students will also be offered English language skills development, if required, to help them make the most of the international opportunity available to them.
A world without Glasgow would mean no ultrasound, no television, no antiseptic, no helium, no coma scale, and no beta blockers. From discovering isotopes to detecting gravitational waves, Glasgow’s people have been changing the world over the last five centuries. They have given the world the engine of the industrial revolution; made significant advances in a range of health fields, including diabetes, cardiovascular disorders and cancer sciences, and so much more.
Today, its researchers are hard at work progressing some of the most pressing questions in areas as diverse as quantum technologies, the future of cities, international development, human rights, global security, sustainable development and personalised medicine.
