Dr Sallyanne Duncan, programme director for the MLitt Digital Journalism degree, said: “The students have come up with a brilliant concept that will give a voice to people in Glasgow that we seldom hear from.

“Glasgow is a burgeoning cosmopolitan city with citizens from all over the world so it is ready for a multimedia magazine that can tell their stories.”

The magazine goes live at 1pm on Friday at maze-mag.com.
