The Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design Visual Research Centre (VRC) was based at Dundee Contemporary Arts until 2018. The Visual Research Centre is a unique facility dedicated to visual arts research from initial concepts to final exposition. Through an exciting portfolio of projects, VRC provides a platform for debate around cultural production and is a crucial DJCAD resource for revealing and disseminating research. At the heart of the VRC is Centrespace, an experimental flexible studio/gallery where research outcomes can be given their first public airing. VRC also houses the Centre for Artists Books and Visual Publishing, a unique artists' book collection and specialist printing production facility. The Rewind research project archive, which has conserved early British video art, can be viewed in the Rewind Microcinema. VRC is also home to DJCAD's PhD community.

The Robertson Trust was established in 1961 by the Robertson sisters Elspeth, Agnes and Ethel, who donated their shares in the family businesses, built up by their grandfather and father, to the Trust for charitable purposes. The sisters were among the first Trustees, serving for a combined total of 71 years and ensuring the Trust upheld the principles at the heart of the family: honesty, integrity and a willingness to help people in need. The family business now operates as the global company Edrington – one of Scotland’s largest private companies and owner of several well-known whisky brands. The sisters’ generosity enables the Trust to use the dividends from its controlling shareholding in Edrington for the benefit of Scotland’s people and communities.

The Scrimgeour Clan Association
- Corporate body
- 1971-
The Scrimgeour Clan association was formed in 1971 with the intention, as identified in the Clan constitution, as amongst other things, of 'the cultivation and preservation of records and traditions bearing on the history of the Clan' and the protection of the lands and property associated with the Clan particularly to secure the suitable use of Dudhope Castle as a permanent token of the Clan's centuries of common history with the city of Dundee.'
The Clan itself has a long history going back to 1107, when Sir Alexander Carron was first granted the name of 'Skirmisher' (meaning 'hardy fighter', although it has been suggested that it could be from 'escimeur' French for 'swordsman') along with the hereditary title of Royal Standard (or Banner) Bearer. Under William Wallace's guardianship of the realm this was added to with the gift of lands in Angus and the bestowing of the Constableship of the castle of Dundee. During the Seventeenth Century the then Clan Chief was made Viscount of Dudhope, and after the Restoration the Earldom of Dundee was granted to the then Viscount, only for the line to appear to run out upon his death. This was later to be proved incorrect when Henry James Scrymgeour-Wedderburn petitioned Parliament in the 1970s for the restoration of the title and successfully brought the Earldom back into Scrimgeour hands.
Unfortunately he was not successful in winning back the lands associated with the title, but the Clan Association are strongly committed to maintaining links with their former properties, with a major aim being the restoration of Dudhope Castle (built by the Scrymgeour family in the 13th Century) and the establishment of a dedicated Scrymgeour room within the Castle for the use of the Clan Association.
The castle has changed hands many times, being initially the seat of the Scrymgeours, it was passed to the Maitlands, prior to being sold to John Graham of Claverhouse ('Bonnie Dundee') and then passed to the Douglas family. From then on the castle had a number of uses, being acquired by the local council in 1854, from recreational to being used as an army barracks, before eventually being acquired by the University of Abertay,
