Student Profile(s)
Elisa Vignaga
I first came to Glasgow on the Erasmus exchange programme. I especially liked the practical nature of the postgraduate courses offered at Glasgow. The combination of theory and its application, using industry software, in river engineering, GIS and urban drainage, was particularly useful. Of course, my personal experience of the University was very important in my decision to continue to study here, but the University’s prestige in world ranking terms was important too. I thought the programme was well organised and I really appreciated the chance to do an experimental study for my major project work. Glasgow itself is a great city, with all the museums, concerts and social life that you would expect, and the people are friendly too.
