Strathclyde Business School is one of four faculties forming the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. The University was established in 1796 as 'the place of useful learning' and this remains at the forefront of our vision today for Strathclyde to be a leading international technological university that makes a positive difference to the lives of its students, to society and to the world.

SBS has established international centres in Greece, Switzerland, UAE, Oman, Bahrain, Singapore and Malaysia. With around 150 academic staff and more than 3000 full-time and part-time students (undergraduate and postgraduate), Strathclyde Business School’s subject departments and specialist units collaborate to provide a dynamic, fully-rounded and varied programme of specialist and cross-disciplinary courses.
We are a triple accredited business school: the first business school in Scotland to hold this accolade, and one of only 88 in the world (July 2018, MBA Today), to be triple accredited, holding accreditation from the international bodies, AMBA, AACSB and EQUIS. We have held all three accreditations since 2004. Our departments and programmes also hold internationally recognised industry accreditations:
