WHY STIRLING

Set in Stirling – the heart of Scotland

Perfectly Positioned

With a central location and excellent road and rail links, Stirling is at the heart of the largest catchment area in Scotland. It has one of the UK’s largest recruitment catchments, with over half of Scotland’s population within a 60 minute commute.

Modern History

As well as being Scotland’s ancient capital and steeped with history and culture, Stirling also offers one of the country’s most dynamic economies, with over 85% employed within the service industry. Underlined by its reputation as one of the best places to live and work, Stirling is the gateway to the right people for any modern business – that’s why M&G, HSBC and Capita are here too.

Dynamic Thinking

The University of Stirling is designed and driven by transformative thinking. Its graduates stand out to global employers and more than 97% of Stirling students are in employment or further study within six months of graduating. (University of Stirling 2019)
