The name Robert Gordon has been synonymous with education in Aberdeen since 1750 when the original college was founded from the monies left in his will.
With the addition of Gray's School of Art in 1885, the School of Pharmacy in 1898 and The Scott Sutherland School of Architecture in 1957, the original college has evolved over the years into a full university - a leading institution of learning still able to draw upon this rich heritage.
Today, we offer an impressive number of courses comprising a broad range of subjects in the arts, design, management, engineering and computing, health sciences and the health professions, and the applied sciences and technology.
The University has around 12,000 students currently studying on approximately 145 full-time and part-time courses at undergraduate, post-experience and postgraduate levels.
