Open days & events

Due to Coronavirus we are currently delivering open days virtually. These events let you hear from our course tutors and find out why studying at SRUC is a unique and rewarding experience that will give you the skills and knowledge to go out and make a real difference to the world. We will review on-campus events as soon as we are able to offer these.
