The University
Cardiff enjoys an international reputation for academic excellence. Government assessments of both teaching and research quality rate Cardiff very highly, and students have access to state-of-the-art computer systems and over 1.5 million books in the University's impressive libraries and resource centres.
Set in the city's magnificent civic centre, it is difficult to imagine a more attractive place to study.
The City
Cardiff is a thriving and attractive city, with all the social facilities of a modern capital. The city's shops are a magnet for visitors and locals alike, and Cardiff's extensive parks and waterfront provide the ideal counterbalance to modern city life.
Students' Union, Sports and Societies
The Students’ Union, one of the biggest and most successful in Britain, provides a focus for over one hundred and fifty different sporting and social societies. From aerobics to aikido, drama to debating, music to mountaineering, there's a vast range of activities to choose from.
The Union has a popular nightclub and concert venue and its cafes and games room provide a retreat during the day. You will also find an informal advisory service, a jobshop and a range of useful shops - all dedicated to Cardiff's students.
