The University of Dundee is making available Global Excellence Postgraduate Taught Scholarships to inspire applicants for the university’s Masters degree programmes, who have demonstrated excellence through their academic, extra-curricular, or voluntary activities.
In Dundee in 1881, Miss Mary Ann Baxter and her cousin, John Boyd Baxter – two of the famous Baxter family, who made their money from the Jute mills of the city – donated £140,000 to the creation of a college in Dundee. This was the beginning of the University of Dundee.
The main campus at the university has undergone incredible change over the past 50 years. The 1960s alone saw the building of the Dentistry building, Bellmont Halls and, most notably, the Tower Building. Recent times have seen the rise of modern feats of architecture such as the Life Sciences building, the Dalhousie building and the award-winning School of Computing building.
