University of Glasgow

I'm choosing between my university offers for mechanical engineering. I would like to hear the students/past students experiences and opinions on attending uni of Glasgow.

Yes, but all the universities looked very good and had similar if not identical aspects. Therefore I would like to hear the experiences of students who have had the full experience.
(Original post by 04MR17)Have you had chance to visit the university at all?

Which universities are you comparing?

If you give us a bit more detail about your current thinking then I can be a bit more help to you.

It's a decision between University of Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen. But its probably between Glasgow and Edinburgh more than Aberdeen.

Fab, next question - are the offer grades similar for Edinburgh as for Glasgow?

Both unconditional offers

Ah sweet, I'm not an expert in Engineering stuff, so I will tag in @Smack who may be able to offer some advice here.

Hey, I'm heading to Glasgow this year for mechanical engineering. On the open days the department seemed really great and we got to see the lab facilities and some up-and-coming research. One thing I'd point out is that although on the website it says they are still trying to get reaccreditation from the Institute of Mechanical Engineers, the head of the department assured us that they are accredited and this is an outdated mistake on the website from COVID. The uni as a whole seems really good, I spoke to a bunch of students from different clubs etc who all had really great things to say about the uni, area and social life. They've got some really great engineering societies and the location in the west end is really nice. I'd definitely recommend it over Edinburgh, as when I visited their campus the students weren't as friendly, the campus is very spread out and I just felt it was a very stuck-up atmosphere.
Hope this helps!
