The James McCune Smith Learning Hub is a £90 million state-of-the-art learning and teaching facility located at the heart of the University of Glasgow’s existing Gilmorehill campus. As of Monday 26 April 2021, the James McCune Smith Learning Hub is now open to students at reduced capacity and in line with the latest Scottish Government guidance. As per Level 3 guidance, the building is only open for individual study initially. Study should be done remotely where possible but if a visit to campus is essential, students should please use the UofG Life app to check availability before travelling: https://www.gla.ac.uk/apps/ The new building, part of the University's major £1bn campus development, will provide state-of-the-art learning facilities, and further enhance Glasgow’s reputation as a welcoming, accessible and world-renowned destination for learning. When fully operational it will provide hi-tech learning facilities for over 2,500 students, including a range of technology-enhanced learning spaces for group and individual study. The James McCune Smith Learning Hub is named after the prominent civil rights activist and first African American to be awarded a medical degree, awarded by the University of Glasgow in 1837. Initially it will open with full COVID restrictions in place, including 2 metre physical distancing, enhanced hygiene and cleaning measures and strict cap on numbers. It will provide additional individual study space on-campus only for students who do not have access to appropriate facility to study from home. Professor Sir Anton Muscatelli, Principal and Vice Chancellor of the University of Glasgow said: “Although not how we’d anticipated opening the building, I am delighted that the James McCune Smith Learning Hub is now open to provide high quality learning facilities to support those students who do not have access to suitable spaces at home. “This is a world-leading learning and teaching facility which will further enhance our offering for students at Glasgow, putting technology, connectivity and accessibility at the heart of the learning experience. “Named after the pioneering James McCune Smith, the first African American to be awarded a medical degree and an alumnus of the University, it will ensure future generations of students from a broad range of backgrounds are able to benefit from a University education at Glasgow.” The University of Glasgow, changing the world since 1451. https://www.gla.ac.uk/
