大学概况University Profile

Glasgow has bought 15 acres of land around the city’s Western Infirmary, which closes in 2015, to reshape the university in a way that it describes as the third major staging point in its 560-year history.

Consultation is still under way on how the site will be used, but £80m has been set aside for new buildings and another £55m for refurbishments. Not all of the developments will be complete before 2015’s entrants have left the university, but the moves will allow Glasgow to expand in the longer term. Applications were 12.5% up in 2013, enabling the university to take an extra 600 undergraduates. Its latest strategy talks of extending the university’s global reach to become a truly international university with a multi-cultural community of students and staff.

It is already on the verge of the top 50 in the QS World University Rankings and played a full part in Glasgow’s Commonwealth Games, adding a cultural dimension.  The university’s Commonwealth Scholarship scheme celebrated the games by offering awards for students from developing countries.

Glasgow’s domestic ranking is buoyed by its strong performance in the annual National Student Survey (NSS), in stark contrast to its big city rival, Edinburgh. Dentistry, zoology, geology, and molecular biology, biophysics and biochemistry achieved perfect 100% satisfaction scores in this year’s NSS. Satisfaction scores for dentistry, geology and teacher training were higher than in any other UK university.

With almost two-thirds of the students coming from Scotland – many from Glasgow and the surrounding area  – the university benefits more than some of its rivals from the policy of free tuition for Scottish students. However, more than a quarter are from outside the UK. They seem to enjoy the experience, having voted Glasgow fourth in the UK and top among Russell Group universities in i–graduate’s independent International Student Barometer.

The university opened its first overseas branch in 2011, as part of an agreement with the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) to deliver joint engineering and mechatronics degree programmes. Students will complete three years at one of SIT’s partner polytechnics before finishing their studies at the University of Glasgow Singapore. The Centre for International Development, which was the first of its kind in Scotland and the largest in the UK, has helped to secure more than £20m of research income.

Glasgow enjoys the rare distinction of having been established by Papal Bull, and began its existence in the chapterhouse of Glasgow Cathedral in 1451. Since 1871 it has been based on the Gilmorehill campus in the city’s fashionable West End, with its 104 listed buildings – more than any other British university.

The Veterinary School and outdoor sports facilities are located at Garscube, four miles away, and there is also a campus at Dumfries, which is taking liberal arts and teacher education degrees to southwest Scotland. The university has spent £7.5m in five years improving teaching and learning facilities and plans to spend a further £3.5m by 2017. In addition, more than £13m has been committed to an extension of sporting and social facilities, which will be complete by 2015.

Glasgow is no stranger to innovation: it was the first university in Britain to have a school of engineering, for example, and the first in Scotland to have a computer. It has now appointed Scotland’s first Gaelic language officer and the country’s first chair of Gaelic.

More than half of the work submitted for the last Research Assessment Exercise was considered world-leading or internationally excellent, and the university finished in the UK’s top ten in 18 subject areas. The Boyd Orr Centre for Population and Ecosystem Health was awarded a Queens Anniversary Prize in 2014.

The latest development, opening in 2015, is the £20m Stratified Medicine Scotland Innovation Centre (SMS-IC) at the new South Glasgow Hospitals Campus, which involves a consortium of universities, NHS Scotland and industry partners.

Almost half of the university’s applications are for arts or sciences degrees, rather than specific subjects, reflecting the popularity of a flexible system that allows students to delay choosing a specialism until the end of their second year.

The university operates a number of access initiatives, including the Top Up programme, which has been working with schools in the West of Scotland since 1999, and the Talent Scholarships, which are worth £1,000 a year to 60 academically able entrants who could face financial difficulties in taking up a place at Glasgow. Nevertheless, fewer than a quarter of the undergraduates are from working-class homes.

The Club 21 programme provides students with paid work experience placements in the UK and overseas. It involves more than 100 employers from Santander to T-Mobile, some of whom sponsor undergraduates at £1,000 a year.

Most students like the combination of campus and city life, with the added bonus that Glasgow has been rated among the most cost-effective cities in which to study. Undergraduates have the choice of two students’ unions, plus a sports union supporting more than 40 clubs and activities. New student union facilities, including a nightclub and four café-bars will be ready during 2015.

学生观点Student view

Owen Martin, students’ union president

First impressions

Everyone was outgoing without being intimidating; I’ve made friends for life.

Worst feature

Glasgow’s reputation for crime, but it doesn’t affect the students in our West End bubble and the city in general is friendly.

Making a difference

Students have the power to vote peers into positions of responsibility, so they can influence change.

Deal clincher

Thanks to our four student bodies, something that’s unique to Glasgow, everyone gets involved.
