Personal comments
In economics they are not as theoretical and mathematical as at my home university. I learned a lot but in another way than at my home university. We had to write a lot of essays which was a new experience for me. At my home uni we have exams all the time were we have to count quite a lot. It was not as stressful as at my home uni.

Personal comments
There are some very good cultural events, concerts, expositions, movies. The Sport building is quite good, there are all kind of equipment there. I like to go to Destiny which is a night club. The Glasgow University Union Club is quite good too. Glasgow has two airports with economic flights through some cities of Europe.

The student card in UK is a powerfull tool for saving money. The tip of the day is to look aroud for any benefit this can grant.
