The University of Glasgow - UOFG Speciality : History
programme: Gender History

I am a student from China and I was worried that I would not understand the accent in class before I came to Glasgow University, but when I came to class, I found that the teachers were from different places, some from Africa, some from the US, some from England, and some from Asia, so the culture was very diverse and each teacher had their own regional accent, which was lovely. When a student didn’t understand, they would patiently repeat and explain in class. I think the classroom experience here is great!

Studied at Masters Level (after doing my undergrad in Ireland). The course was group taught in the style of student led seminars so great for connecting with the material and furthering our own interests as well as covering the basics in terms of theory. Great opportunity to network with many specialists and work with them on projects like essays and dissertations. Did not like the inconsistency of hybrid classes and they would often be moved online last minute. Student life at UofG is great – loads of clubs and societies to get involved with all covering different interests but catering to a wide range of abilities and needs. I played sports and got involved with the one society and spent a lot of my free time with these two because there was so much going on. Overall I would recommend this programme and university.
