Tips
Here are some helpful videos sharing tips to make the most of your time at Strathclyde.
Welcome to Glasgow
Strath Union and The University of Strathclyde call the city of Glasgow home and for those of
you who are arriving in Glasgow for the very first time, welcome!
Glasgow is Scotland's largest city, with a special mix of history, culture, entertainment and education.
It has great scran (food), top patter (conversation) and plenty of activities to keep you occupied - when
you're not studying of course...
All of the buildings on campus, including Strath Union and Halls, are located between Cathedral and George
Street so you're right in the heart of Glasgow. Pop into the Union to say hi if you're in the area
before September!
Get to the Union
Follow Natalie and Eve around the city as they show you how to get to the Union from Glasgow Central and
Queen Street station.
There's no universal ticket option for transport but most providers offer some form of
discount for students. Remember everyone between 5-21 years old living in Scotland for more than 6
months of the year can travel for free by bus with a valid National Entitlement Card or Young Scot
National Entitlement Card.
Find your way
Find your way around campus with the help of Natalie and Eve as they show you how to avoid the hills and how
to get to your next
class in record time.
Take a tour
Join Natalie for a building tour of Strath Union showing you everything from the media room to behind the
scenes at The Terrace.
