Overview
Founded in 1451, the University of Glasgow is the fourth oldest university in the English-speaking world. Today we are in the top 1% of the world's universities.
Glasgow’s college system enables interdisciplinary collaboration while fostering a sense of belonging. We have four colleges, each bringing together the research and teaching expertise of a number of schools and institutes. Every college also has a graduate school.
The University is expanding and evolving. Following the closure of the Western Infirmary site in 2015, we plan to invest £80m in new buildings and equipment and £55m on refurbishing facilities over the next five years.
