Our mission | Moffat Centre

Visitor Attractions

The Moffat Centre is in the unique position of holding the most comprehensive and up to date data on Scottish visitor attractions. Our data informs a number of economic and forecasting models at both local and national level and is used by individual accommodation providers as a benchmarking tool

Destination Management

The Moffat Centre undertakes consultancy and research in tourism, hospitality, events and travel. We provide realistic, practical advice to our clients and we tailor our approach for each project undertaken to meet project objectives.

Applied research

A research study by GCU’s Moffat Centre for Travel and Tourism Business Development has revealed the overwhelming value of the night-time and retail economy sectors. Collectively they contribute £5.46 billion to the economy of Scotland's largest city, and generate more than 33,000 full-time jobs.

Scholarships

The Moffat Scholarship awards support students pursuing a career in the travel, tourism or events industries. Since 1998, more than 200 GCU students have benefitted from the generous fund established by the Moffat Charitable Trust.
