Residence Life

Team Structure

To support over 6,000 students living in University of Glasgow accommodation, Residence Life includes specialist teams in three areas: 

  • Health and Welfare 
    Supporting wellbeing, mental health and personal safety, with trained professionals available when needed 
  • Social Responsibility 
    Supporting sustainable choices, halls and campus projects and involvement in local and global initiatives 
  • Events and Volunteering 
    Creating inclusive activities, building community and supporting volunteers to bring ideas to life 

Alongside our staff teams, our student volunteers play an essential role in halls, as part of our Halls Activities Team. They help shape events, encourage fellow students to connect, and create welcoming environments within our halls.
