Brazil
In Glasgow, resident Brazilians take part every year in the West End festival, entertaining crowds with Samba dance and music. The art of Capoeira has also taken our cosmopolitan city by storm so interested students can find classes in just about any part of the city, including the city’s West End, where the university is located. Currently, we have around 14 registered Brazilian students at the University of Glasgow, but are delighted to welcome more every year.
Have a look at the Visit Scotland brochure to get an idea of what Scotland and Glasgow have to offer!
