UMIS acts as the collective voice of university museums in Scotland.
Scotland’s university museums are open to everyone. Find out about the fascinating objects and collections they hold, how you can visit, and what events and exhibitions are coming up.
Collections highlights
University museums have a huge range of collections and look after over 2 million objects. From the familiar and famous to the weird and wonderful, we have created some ‘mini collections’ of themed items from across the museums to give you a taste of the variety of things you can see if you visit.
