The Hunterian
The Hunterian is the University of Glasgow’s museum and gallery service. As Scotland’s oldest public museum it is home to the largest collection outside the National Museums. The Hunterian Museum in the Gilbert Scott building houses extensive displays of British and international archaeology, including a gallery devoted to The Antonine Wall: Rome’s Final Frontier.
The Hunterian collections are available for all degree-related study by University of Glasgow students. The Hunterian also contributes sessions to various University of Glasgow undergraduate courses including MA Hons Archaeology (Fieldwork). The Hunterian also welcomes those students undertaking the MLitt in Material Culture and Artefact Studies and the MSc in Museum Studies to join the Hunterian Exhibition Work Placements course.
New Hunterian Learning Plan programmes are being piloted this year and will be rolled out on a wider basis after evaluation.
