Robert Gordon University - Student View

A modern university with excellent facilities, in a city with a lively social scene. Range of courses in three faculties (design & technology, health & social care and business ) - all industry-focused and with the opportunity to gain professional work experience; so not surprising that there is a good track record for graduate employment.

Schoolhill Campus is in the city centre, so close to shops, cafes and pubs. Garthdee Campus, a short bus ride away, has modern glass buildings overlooking the River Dee and surrounded by lush parkland - a serene environment to study in.

But student life is not all work and no play. New RGU sports centre boasts a swimming pool, epic climbing wall, fitness gym and several areas for sports and fitness activities. For the more slothful, it also has a cafe bar where you can relax with friends. Aberdeen's nightlife is buzzing and, with such a large population of students, there's no shortage of clubs and pubs which cater for the student crowd and their modest budgets. Plenty of venues offering entertainment from live bands and guest DJs to themed nights and pub quizzes. With two bars, pool tables, a big screen TV and live entertainment seven nights a week, RGU Union is the perfect place to begin your night out.
