Widening Participation at Glasgow

Based within the Recruitment and International Office, the objective of Widening Participation is to develop, implement, co-ordinate and monitor initiatives which:

  • furthers the increased recruitment of students to Higher Education from those areas and groups where there is low participation
  • increases the provision of educational support for all students once they have entered the University in order to improve student retention and to facilitate the successful completion of students' programmes of study
  • furthers the flexible provision of learning opportunities

You can access information on Widening Participation activities and programmes via the navigation panel on the left of the page. If you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact one of the Recruitment and International Office.
