Academic Collaborations (part of Academic Policy & Governance)
The role of Academic Collaborations (AC) is to support the development and management of collaborations that involve students studying for an academic award from the University of Glasgow - essentially, this means learning and teaching collaborations (including PGR). These are increasingly in an international context.
The office is home to the University's central Transnational Education (TNE) Team, which provides comprehensive support for the University’s TNE operations.
