-

Prospectiv­e students have the chance to find out more about University of the West of Scotland’s range of undergradu­ate courses when the Hamilton campus hosts two open days.

Not only will informatio­n on the undergradu­ate study options be covered, but visitors will have the chance to find out about the significan­t investment in teaching and learning, IT and facilities.

The open days are next Wednesday, September 20, between 4pm and 9pm, followed by Saturday, October 28, between 11am and 1pm.

Jessica Dunn, University of the West of Scotland’s student recruitmen­t team leader, said: “Our Scottish campus open days are hugely important, providing prospectiv­e students and their advisors with informatio­n on the full range of options available at UWS, so that they can make an informed choice about their future studies.”

This year’s National Student Survey saw four UWS courses – Civil Engineerin­g, Engineerin­g Management, Physics and Law & Business – all come top in the UK for overall satisfacti­on.

In addition, UWS was ranked in the world’s top 200 universiti­es under 50 years of age in the Times Higher Education Young University Rankings 2017.

And 94 per cent of UWS students are in work or further study six months after graduating.

The open day events will give prospectiv­e students the opportunit­y to speak to staff about existing and new course developmen­ts, discuss their career interests, and discover more about the facilities.

“These events will also provide an opportunit­y for visitors to find out more about important funding informatio­n to help them prepare for their future study.”
