History

Morningside College was established in 2006 with generous and imaginative donations from the Morningside Foundation and the Morningside Education Foundation. The Scottish economist and winner of the 1996 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences, Professor Sir James Mirrlees, was appointed the founding Master that same year. The fully residential College accommodates 300 students with communal dining three nights per week during term time. The College admitted its first cohort in 2010.

Motto

The motto of the College is Scholarship, Virtue, Service.
