The College comprises five academic schools and is home to more than 1,300 staff and 13,000 students. Together, we address significant social, economic and environmental challenges, helping to shape positive change through research, education and engagement. Our work reflects the University's Glasgow 2036 strategy by combining academic excellence with real-world impact, preparing our graduates with the knowledge, skills and insight to become future leaders and changemakers.
Our internationally recognised research is built on strong disciplinary foundations; interdisciplinary research that tackles some of the world's most pressing challenges; and meaningful partnerships with policymakers, communities, organisations and industry. Through collaboration and co-production, we generate knowledge that informs policy, improves practice and contributes to more just, resilient and prosperous societies.
We look forward to you studying, working and collaborating with us.
