Program Overview

Program Description:

The University at Albany has a long standing relationship with the University of Glasgow. The University of Glasgow is a wonderful location to study abroad. The University has visiting students from all over the world who are eligible to take a variety of coursework in a diverse range of subjects with local students for an enriching and cultural experience.

The course is defined by its focus on the observation of education in action, with students visiting a selection of local schools to observe teaching in Scotland first hand. The observation will be complemented by focused input from the University of Glasgow’s expert academic staff. Alongside the experiential learning, the course will engage students in a range of important background topics in education, including conduct and behavior in schools, comparing education systems and practices, global citizenship and literacy across the curriculum, all set against the innovative policies and practices of Scottish Education.
