What was the best thing about your course?
The faculty, including the admin staff, the students, and the close relationship the students shared with the entire staff throughout the course.
Why did you choose to study at Cardiff University?
The course was the only leading 'international' public relations course in all of Europe and it is taught by a great faculty with industry experience, plus having done my undergraduate BA in Cardiff, I was already aware of the brilliance of the university and the level of interest the faculty has in students doing well. The city is also a great mix of urban and rural, with plenty to do in our spare time.
Describe the Cardiff social life?
Cardiff is the excellent balance of urban and rural experience that one can hope for. There are more than enough parks and scenery to enjoy a lazy summer day in and a great variety of museums, shops, malls and cinemas to indulge in. Cardiff also enjoys a great live performance scene. Couple that with an excellent nightlife catering all tastes, Cardiff provides an excellent social life, with something for everyone.
Why would you recommend Cardiff to potential students?
The University hones the skills of the students and provides excellent opportunities for students to enter the real world. Plus the city is full of life and caters to all the needs for students, be it enjoying a sunny day in Bute park, a stroll around the galleries or a night out in town.

What was the best thing about your course?
I loved the practical elements, such as the skills needed for jobs after the course. I felt that was most beneficial to me.
Why did you choose to study at Cardiff University?
I chose Cardiff University because the city is a nice relaxed city with a lot to offer! The student life here is great and there aren't many cities in the UK that thrive with student culture. In addition, I chose Cardiff because the university has a great appeal to it, it was the best for my course and a recognised university in the UK and Internationally.
Describe the Cardiff social life?
Cardiff social life is vibrant. The union has great facilities and endlessly great artists and club nights happening in the union. Outside the union in the city centre the social life thrives for cultures, history and arts. The museum is great along with the castle to explore. The city is small but oozes with a lot to do that’s why I love it!
Why would you recommend Cardiff to potential students?
I always boast about the city, Cardiff is a hidden city many don't really expect Cardiff to be as nice as it is. Cardiff University has a lot of facilities and help for students. The beautiful buildings allow students to feel privileged to be part of such a great university and city.
