I am writing to extend a warm invitation to yourself and your students to attend our upcoming Open Day at City of Glasgow College’s Riverside Campus. We believe that your students would greatly benefit from the enriching experiences and opportunities we have to offer in the ever-growing global STEM sector and in the merchant navy.

Here’s the details

Time: November 25^th, 10:00am-3:00pm.
Campus: Riverside Campus
21 Thistle Street

(If you’re interested in courses other than our Engineering (Marine, Electrical, Mechanical) or our Nautical courses you should visit our City campus, for all other courses head to Riverside Campus.)

Here’s a glimpse of what your students and staff can look forward to:

Practical Demonstrations: Engage in practical demonstrations that highlight our commitment to experiential learning.

Meet the Experts: Connect with our experienced faculty and staff to learn more about our cutting-edge curriculum and commitment to excellence.

Campus Tours: Explore our state-of-the-art facilities, including 360-degree ship’s bridge simulator, full ship’s engine simulator, STEM Lab, and engineering workshop.

Attending our Open Day provides an excellent opportunity to gain insights into the educational landscape we provide, fostering a collaborative spirit between our institutions. We believe that by working together, we can create a more enriched learning experience for students in our local community.
