For a breath of fresh air all year round, green spaces such as George Square and the Meadows are right outside our front door.

The culture of the Business School is people orientated and diverse; we have a strong Equality and Diversity committee made up of both academic and professional services staff and we are committed to the principles of Athena SWAN https://www.advance-he.ac.uk/equality-charters/athena-swan-charter .
