Summary
£1.5 million will fund student jobs and internships at the University of Glasgow in the 2025-26 academic year, expanding paid work opportunities alongside study.
Rising demand for on-campus employment drove the move, with the university saying the roles are meant to build workplace experience and improve graduates' employability.
Half of Glasgow's student body has taken part-time jobs over the past three years, and the new openings will include ambassador, content creator and peer-support roles.
Glasgow is pitching the scheme into a wider city growth strategy, with sectors such as hospitality, retail and technology — including the Riverside Innovation District — offering students more work pathways.
