Glasgow. Our city. Our partner.

Connect, collaborate and contribute.

The University of Glasgow was founded for the benefit of the city and its people. 

We work with companies and organisations throughout the city to co-design solutions to create real, lasting impact and opportunity in Glasgow and beyond.  

Our staff and students are engaged in strong, enduring research and community partnerships to improve health, boost the economy, build a better future and celebrate the achievements of those living in Glasgow.
