REACH: Knowledge Exchange Activities

Integrated to the past, present and future of the College of Arts is a solid grounding in the community. Not only local to Glasgow, but across Scotland and internationally. Our ongoing relationships with various bodies external to the institution enables the College of Arts to provide world class research that is relevant to the cultural sector and the wider economy.

The College of Arts will be hosting an Industry Day (31st May 2013) event aimed at Arts, Creative, Cultural and Heritage organisations. The event presents an opportunity for both the private and public sectors to learn of the many ways in which they can benefit from the strengths and resources of the College of Arts. We hope you will be able to join us on the day. - Prof Murray Pittock, Head of College of Arts
