Glasgow Caledonian is a city-centre campus university located a few minutes north of Glasgow's main shopping precinct, Buchanan Street. The university campus is fairly compact, making travelling between facilities easy.

 

Background and History

Glasgow Caledonian became a university in 1993, the product of Glasgow Polytechnic's merger with the city's Queen's College. Both institutions had a long tradition of providing practical and vocational training. These continue to form the core subjects offered at the new university.
