East Kilbride was a county constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom (at Westminster) from 1974 until 2005. It returned one Member of Parliament (MP), elected by the first-past-the-post voting system.

At the 2005 general election it was merged with part of Clydesdale to form the new constituency of East Kilbride, Strathaven and Lesmahagow.

The East Kilbride Holyrood constituency, created to be coterminous in 1999, continues in use for elections to the Scottish Parliament.
