It's the fourth oldest university in the UK; Glasgow's undergraduates walk in the footsteps of eminent thinkers throughout history such as the father of economics Adam Smith, and Scotland’s inaugural First Minister Donald Dewar.

You can choose from a wide range of degree programmes that are flexible enough to meet your needs. And the University's international reputation, high graduate employment and exciting student lifestyle are great benefits too.
