The Data Network at the University of Glasgow is a vital infrastructure component supporting the delivery of learning, teaching, research, and business operations for the University. It has grown over the years to meet an ever-increasing demand, which it does very well, but is now aging and in need of a refresh.

In this video, Al Thomson, Director of Infrastructure and Cloud Services, provides an update to the Network Programme.

Our goal is to redesign the university network as a modern network to enable an outstanding teaching and learning experience and create a much better operating environment. In essence:

  • making it faster
  • making it more secure
  • making it scalable
  • and with better Wi-Fi coverage

As a long-term project, your patience and support are greatly appreciated.
