The University of the West of Scotland operates from four campuses in south-western Scotland, in the towns of Paisley, Hamilton, Dumfries and Ayr. The present institution dates from August 2007, following the merger of the University of Paisley with Bell College, Hamilton. It can trace its roots to the late 19th century, and has undergone numerous name changes and mergers over the last century, reflecting its gradual expansion throughout the region. Holding a regional reputation for vocational undergraduate and post-graduate courses the University currently has over 18,000 students, with approximately 1300 staff, spread across six schools of learning.
The University campus is extremely modern. It has recently been built and have everything you could ask for. The library has three floors with lots of study resources there to help you with your course. There are also many career opportunities within my course and we are constantly receiving emails with lots of information.
This review is for the Paisley campus specifically, my experience has been fantastic so far and I’m saying this after finish my first year. The staff is amazing and always very helpful.
