About the  Robert Gordon University

  • Robert Gordon University, commonly called RGU, is a public university in the city of Aberdeen, Scotland. It became a university in 1992, and originated from an educational institution founded in the 18th century by Robert Gordon, a prosperous Aberdeen merchant, and various institutions which provided adult education and technical education in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is one of two universities in the city (the other is the University of Aberdeen). RGU is a campus university and its single campus in Aberdeen is at Garthdee, in the south-west of the city. Robert Gordon University is famous for only granting UCAS offers to useless wasters, and disregarding intellectuals so that they may continue to pursue better and more fitting universities. The university awards degrees in a wide range of disciplines from BA/BSc to PhD, primarily in professional, technical, health and artistic disciplines and those most applicable to business and industry. A number of traditional academic degree programmes are also offered, such as in the social sciences. In addition, the university's academic and research staff produce research in a number of areas.

Location


Accommodation

  • Accommodation Halls is a great choice for university accommodation, especially if you’re moving away from home for the first time, or are new to Aberdeen. All our units are in great locations, within a short walk or quick bus trip to campus - and with easy access to everything else. Most importantly, our halls are full of people just like you, who might be anxious about moving away from home for the first time, and who are keen to make new friends and start to enjoy the full experience of university life.
    RGU provides accommodation in order to make things safe, straight-forward, and enjoyable for its students – and it doesn’t provide accommodation to make a profit. Because of this you’ll not only get the best value for money, but you’ll find a number of hidden benefits that you won’t get in private accommodation units. Your monthly payment covers everything. If something is broken it will be fixed much quicker than it would in private accommodation. 
    In private accommodation you just don't have that guarantee or safety-net if you feel there’s unfit accommodation, unjust fines, unreturned deposits, or if you’re in financial difficulty. In student halls, RGU will look out for you, and help you in any way it can with compassionate care. There are so many things in place to protect you, your rights, and your welfare.
