I study politics and am the a tutor for the Student Experience Team here in the College of Social Sciences. I really enjoy exploring all that Glasgow has to offer at the weekend.

Jess
University of Glasgow
Geology [BSc/MSci]
Hey! I’m Jess, a fourth year undergraduate Geology student with hopes to go into the fields of either volcanology, geotechnical engineering or the energy sector. I come from the Lake District in the UK which probably led to my interest in geology and the environment as well as growing up watching disaster films such as Dante’s peak leading to an interest in natural disasters (particularly volcanoes). I have A-levels in geology, geography and environmental science and have studied geography as an elective subject alongside my degree. I’m happy to answer any questions you may have :)

Kaitlyn
University of Glasgow
Psychology [BSc/MA/MA(SocSci)]
I am from a very small town in Ohio where nothing interesting happened, so traveling across the world to study in Glasgow has been a huge transition, yet the best thing I have ever done. I love the amazing people and the opportunity to explore Scotland as well as the rest of the world.
After university, I am planning on becoming a psychotherapist where I will work in hospitals to help adolescents and young adults who are struggling with mental health or are in crisis. My main goal in life is to help those in need around me the best I can.

Kiera

Neuroscience [BSc/MSci]
Hi! My name is Kiera and I am a 4th year Neuroscience MSci student at the University of Glasgow. Outside of my studies I love to sing and perform on stage in musicals - it is a great way to relax and express myself! I chose to study Neuroscience as I find the complexity of the brain fascinating, and there is so much to learn about on this course. I started on the BSc degree and transferred to the MSci program at the end of 3rd year. Currently, I am completing my work placement year in the Centre for Neurotechnology and Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging. If you are thinking of applying to study Neuroscience or another Life Science degree, please give me a message! I am also happy to answer any questions about the MSci program from current students!

Common Law [LLB]
I am a third year common law student from London. After university I plan to train to be a barrister. I am currently on a year abroad in Singapore - so if you have any questions about study abroad I'm more than happy to help!
Around campus, I'm usually quite busy. I've been a Welcome Week Helper - so I can tell you a lot about what to expect from Welcome Week. I've also been elected to student council twice - once as General Representative and most recently as Charities Officer. I've always looked to get involved in student societies and have been involved in the Bar and Advocacy society, Raising and Giving Society as well as the Law Review.
I also love sports! I used to play for Glasgow uni's football team every Wednesday in first year. More recently, I have taken part in boxing as part of Student Fight Night. On my year abroad, I have also taken up rugby which has been great fun.
Any questions please don't hesitate to ask - excuse me for replying at strange hours due to time difference from Singapore

Hi everyone, I'm a third-year student from New Delhi, India, currently pursuing my LLB (Hons) in Common Law at the University of Glasgow. When I'm not buried in legal textbooks, you'll likely find me expressing my creative side through dance, fashion, and makeup. I'm also passionate about content creation, which allows me to blend my interests in law and creativity.
Choosing the University of Glasgow was an easy decision for me. The city's vibrant atmosphere, combined with the university's prestigious law program, offered the perfect balance of academic excellence and cultural experience. As an international student, I've found Glasgow to be a welcoming and exciting place to live and study.
Looking ahead, I'm keen on exploring various aspects of the legal profession. The Common Law program here has opened my eyes to numerous possibilities, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes me.
If you're considering Glasgow for your studies, especially in law, feel free to reach out! I'd be happy to chat about life in Glasgow or even the ins and outs of the law program! Can't wait to connect with you and share more about this amazing university and city!
