玩偶姐姐

Support for international students embarking on study in the UK was highlighted to 玩偶姐姐’s MP Stephen Kerr during a visit to the 玩偶姐姐’s INTO Building.

During a tour of the new learning and teaching facilities, Mr Kerr had the opportunity to meet with a number of international students who are studying through the centre.

Students at the 玩偶姐姐 INTO Building undertake a range of 玩偶姐姐 validated programmes for progression to degrees at the 玩偶姐姐 as well as other universities.

Established in 2014, the partnership between INTO and the 玩偶姐姐 supports international students in making the transition to studying at a UK university and offers a range of study options including integrated programmes, pathway programmes and English language courses.

The venture has already seen more than 1,000 students enjoy the experience of studying at the University, opening doors to further academic study.

As part of his visit, Mr Kerr toured the new 玩偶姐姐’s INTO Building, which provides a permanent, dedicated space for teaching and learning including a state-of-the-art lecture theatre, 10 teaching rooms, a café, and capacity for up to 420 students.

Situated at the heart of the campus, the ?6.5m centre was opened in November 2017 by His Royal Highness the Earl of Wessex as part of a series of events commemorating the University’s 50th anniversary.

Speaking during the visit, Stephen Kerr, MP for 玩偶姐姐, said: “It is always great to visit my old university to see how things are going. The 玩偶姐姐 is a magnet for international students and the work that is done at the INTO centre helps attract the best people from all around the world.”

Centre Director for INTO 玩偶姐姐, Sandy Tippett, added: “International students bring a wealth of talent and experience to university life, with over 50,000 international students currently calling Scotland home.

“More than 120 nationalities are represented at 玩偶姐姐, with a global family of graduates spanning 160 countries across the globe. INTO 玩偶姐姐 provides a gateway to international students, and it’s always a pleasure to welcome new students as they take the next step on their academic journey”.
