It is accordingly in the main historical. In Part I the story is told of the beginning of the University and of its Colleges. Here it will be seen that the University was the work in the first instance of Churchmen unselfishly devoted to the improvement of their country, and manifesting by their acts that deep interest in education which long, before John Knox was born, lay in the heart of Scotland.

  • SAINTS RUGBY PERFORMANCE PROGRAMME to Become a World-Renowned Rugby Programme That Encourages All Members to Be the Best They Can Be
    saints sport SAINTS RUGBY PERFORMANCE PROGRAMME To become a world-renowned rugby programme that encourages all members to be the best they can be. This vision focuses on creating the very best environment and upmost enjoyment for our club members. We aim to constantly improve our rugby programme and grow our links internationally. We also aim to work closely with the local community, to integrate with university departments and to host the very best events in the social calendar possible. The University of St Andrews has developed the most advanced rugby programme in Scotland, which offers student athletes a range of coaching, training and support opportunities, allowing them to excel in both their academic and sporting achievements. We want to ensure that the club is developing both on and off the field through setting strategic targets to evolve our club and provide the very best experience for our club members during their time in St Andrews. This vision is going to push our club members to be the best they possibly can be and make our club one of OUR the premier destinations for aspiring student athletes globally. VISION 2 3 Founded in 1858, the University of St Andrews Rugby Football Club is one of the oldest sports clubs at the University and is the sixth oldest rugby club in the world. The club is a founder member of the Scottish Rugby Union (SRU) and has been an integral part of the University for 160 years. In 1871 in the first international between Scotland and England at Raeburn Place, three St Andrews students, A Clunies-Ross, R Munro and J S Thomson represented Scotland, showing the importance of the club at that time.

  • SUPER DTP – Year 4 Call for Phd Studentship Proposals the Scottish
    SUPER DTP – Year 4 Call for PhD Studentship proposals The Scottish Universities Partnership for Environmental Research Doctoral Training Partnership (SUPER DTP) is pleased to announce its third call for PhD studentship proposals. The SUPER DTP addresses an interdisciplinary "catchment to coast" research portfolio, supporting the holistic study of the ecological dynamics of systems from headland rivers and catchments through lowland regions and riparian systems to estuarine and coastal waters and marine ecosystems. The three themes under the SUPER "Catchment to Coast" umbrella are: • Environmental dynamics: hydrology, sedimentology, coastal processes, erosion control, ecosystem engineering, river ecology and flood management • Biodiversity and ecosystem function: Ecosystem services, ecology and conservation • Challenged ecosystems: climate, multiple stressors, resilience, resource management, societal well-being, legacy waste The fourth call under the SUPER DTP remains broad in scope, and we invite applications across the full SUPER remit, which embraces terrestrial, freshwater and all marine habitats. This includes, but is not limited to, studies of: ecology; biodiversity; biological invasions; ecosystem change; environmental physics and chemistry; modelling; mechanistic studies; social and economic studies; and emerging issues. We would particularly welcome applications covering: • Freshwater, terrestrial and truly-catchment wide projects • The Deep Sea • Inter- and transdisciplinary projects Non-HEI SUPER DTP Collaborating Partners
