Location

Scotland's biggest city, Glasgow hosts the largest student population in Scotland and has been named one of the world's top ten cities in travel guides. Combining a compact campus-style environment with the benefits of being in a major city, the University has two main city campuses: Gilmorehill in the cosmopolitan and friendly West End; and Garscube, 6.5 km (4 miles) from the city. A third campus is located in Dumfries some 145 km to the south of Glasgow. Both city campuses have excellent transport into the city centre via frequent buses and subway. Glasgow International Airport, Glasgow Prestwick International Airport and two city centre rail terminals offer easy connections with the rest of the UK and the world.
