Glasgow College UESTC

The Glasgow College, UESTC provides students in Chengdu with a fantastic opportunity to be taught by two world-class Universities and graduate with dual degrees.

Study for a dual degree with the university of Glasgow

The University of Glasgow has a long tradition of welcoming students from China and building partnerships with prestigious Chinese universities, such as UESTC. The relationship between the University of Glasgow and UESTC dates back to 2009, when we first signed an agreement to promote joint research and student mobility. The collaboration then entered a new and exciting phase of development in 2013, with the joint delivery of a four year undergraduate dual-degree programme in Electronics and Electrical Engineering at UESTC’s Qingshuihe Campus in Chengdu. In January 2016, a Joint Educational Institute application was approved by the Ministry of Education and a second programme, Electronics and Electrical Engineering with Communications, was launched in September 2016. A third programme, Electronics and Electrical Engineering with Microelectronics will launch in September 2019.

Glasgow College, UESTC offers programmes at a standard commensurate with the highest quality of education available internationally. With teaching delivered equally by staff from both universities, the joint programmes aim to combine the best features of the UK and Chinese university systems to provide students with the scholarship and skills that will equip them for lifetime careers as leaders in industry and academia. Students will be awarded with degrees from both Universities on meeting graduation requirements.
