When I was applying, Strathclyde stood out for being one of the top engineering universities in the UK. During the interview and accompanying tour, all the staff in the Electronic and Electrical Engineering department were very professional and knowledgeable and gave me a fascinating insight into the research that’s done in the department.

Campus life

The Strathclyde campus is a great place to stay for students. We’re based in the heart of Glasgow city centre – Scotland’s largest, and most cosmopolitan, city.

Our campus village offers warm, comfortable and secure accommodation – within five minutes’ walk from all your classes, the Strathclyde Library and a stone’s throw from the city centre’s shops, bars, restaurants and museums.

It's all about Glasgow!

Glasgow is very much the place to be for students. The words of our students speak for themselves!

Glaswegians are the friendliest people I have ever met. I live in the city centre, which is very handy for getting about and meeting people. I’m very glad that I chose to come and study here. Glasgow is home for me now."
