University staff and students have been offered the chance to play a major role in next year's inaugural European Championships.
The Championships, being co-hosted by Glasgow and Berlin in August 2018, will bring together the existing championships of seven of Europe’s leading sports into one coordinated, exciting multi-sport event.
Aquatics, cycling, gymnastics, golf, rowing and triathlon will be held in Scotland, with the German capital hosting the athletics.
The Championships offer a diverse range of volunteering roles - from being part of the legendary warm, Glasgow welcome to working alongside the international media.
The University of Glasgow wishes to support the championships in a variety of ways, including providing additional leave arrangements for staff who want to volunteer. Please visit the HR website for more information:
