WORLD CHANGERS WELCOME

The University of Glasgow has been changing the world since 1451, and we continue to inspire today’s world changers. Regardless of where you are, our impressive array of online programmes empower you to achieve your ambitions and join our world-changing community.

As a member of the prestigious Russell Group of leading UK universities, our reputation for global excellence is underpinned by breakthrough research and world-class teaching. Our programmes have inspired some of the world’s most impactful minds, including Ian Donald, who developed the first foetal ultrasound image; Lady Cosgrove, the first woman judge in the Court of Session and High Court; and Adam Smith, the ‘Father of Economics.’

Learning online allows you to receive personalised support from expert faculty when it's convenient for you. Experienced lecturers teach all of our online programmes to ensure you gain the necessary insight and skills to succeed in your chosen field.

INTERACTIVE ONLINE LEARNING

A new kind of learning requires a new, innovative approach. Our online programmes feature a flexible combination of formats, including:

• engaging academic videos,
• access to course audio and transcripts,
• virtual course discussion opportunities,
• a library of digital resources, and
• study with students from over 140 countries worldwide.

“The Glasgow virtual learning environment is an extension and evolution of conventional teaching, rather than a replacement for it – providing mentorship and support where it is needed, a sense of being part of an actual classroom cohort, and learning content that can easily be accessed!”
– James Carrier, The University of Glasgow online MSc student
