Real-life experience and world ready graduates
Our undergraduate programmes provide a strong platform to launch a career in your chosen industry. UWS graduates have gone on to secure jobs with organisations including Shell, Ford, Motorola and Citibank, as well as national charities and education providers.
Throughout our business programmes, you’ll learn industry theory in the classroom and gain first-hand experience through placement opportunities. And with regular guest lectures from organisations such as Finnieston Distillery Company, MadeBrave, Ocado and VisitScotland, you’ll gain invaluable insight from those at the forefront of the business world.
Students on our law programmes will benefit from gaining experience in a bespoke mock court room (a Moot room) for the delivery of practical skills development modules. UWS Law graduates are equipped for careers within and out-with the legal sector. Graduates will also be well positioned to compete for places on graduate training schemes.
