20 1 1 diary of studying in Britain: my life at Glasgow university

Diary of Studying in Britain: My life in Glasgow University is reported by liuxue86.com. According to the British Ministry of Education, Glasgow University in Scotland is a very popular university. Every year, many China students go there to study, leaving many good memories. In this article, a friend who has studied and lived in Glasgow for several years shared with us his study abroad life in Glasgow.

University of Glasgow major:

Glasgow University is one of the best universities in Scotland, and its main building is one of the landmark buildings in Glasgow. University libraries are also famous in Europe, with a large collection of books. Many times, students of Glasgow Art Institute want to borrow books from the library of Glasgow University (but in university of strathclyde, books on business management are more comprehensive).

The architecture of Glasgow University is in the style of an ancient castle. The school is near kelvingrove Park, and the scenery is very good. In the west of Glasgow, the University of Glasgow is very obvious. The most powerful major of Glasgow University is veterinary medicine (the first in Europe), followed by life science and medicine, cancer research, religious research and language research. Many foreign students from China study business management. Glasgow ranks around 65,438+05 in the UK in terms of business management, among which finance and accounting are famous. There are many famous professors in business, including the chairman of the All-England Accounting Federation, and everyone has the opportunity to take these awesome classes.

Business at Glasgow University is mainly divided into two categories: MBA and MSc management. Basic information: There are about 50 MBA students and several hundred MSc students (China people account for 1/3). Some foreign students from China are studying bioelectronics and law at Glasgow University (these are all majors with strong requirements for English language, so it is best to learn the advice of this subject, otherwise it will be difficult to learn).

Accommodation at Glasgow University:

Like other universities, the dormitory in Glasgow University is very expensive, so most international students choose to live outside. It is not difficult to find a house in Glasgow. There are many people in China, and there are many housing agencies. The house price is 200-350 yuan per month (depending on the location and decoration of the house). Near the university is Student Street-byers Road. There are many supermarkets (Iceland _ sells frozen food, co-op= big supermarket-the price is more expensive), banks: Lloyd tsb, clydes Bank, etc. There is also a subway station. As long as you live near the school, everything is convenient.

There are many museums and big parks near the university, which are open for free most of the time.

Downtown Glasgow:

Glasgow is the largest urban center in Britain (comparable to Sheffield, Manchester and London). Students who live near the school can take the subway (one-way1.2) for 7 minutes to the city center, or take the bus, which takes about 15 minutes. There is everything in the city center, selling clothes: Gap, Zara, Riverisland, Topshop, All Saint；; General department store: Fraser House, John Lewis; Famous brand stores: Ted Baker, Cruise, etc. China City is also in the city center (if you take the subway, you can get off at Kaukaden and walk for 2 minutes). Of course, there are many galleries and museums, and everyone can visit them when they have time.

It can be compared with the scale of big cities like Shanghai or Beijing and Shenzhen. There are many specialty stores where you can get very cheap prices at a discount, and there are also many Scottish national clothing stores. There are some galleries and museums scattered in the city, so you can go and get to know more when you are free.

Food in Glasgow:

Personally, English food is the same everywhere. If you want to eat delicious food, you can either go to a restaurant (there are many high-end western restaurants in downtown Glasgow, as well as ordinary ones). Those who want to eat Chinese food can eat hot pot, buffet or order food. These restaurants are so concentrated that you don't have to run around. Personally, I still recommend bringing my own food, which is both economical and delicious. Cooking with a few friends is also interesting. Buy fish and meat. You can go to Glasgow, China. Very cheap (at least much cheaper than British supermarkets).

Weather in Glasgow:

It will rain tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow. This is the weather forecast for Britain. Most cities are rainy, but there are sunny periods in summer, more than 20 degrees. It's very comfortable. You can go to the park for a picnic with other students!
