Welsh language opportunities

We support students who wish to study in the medium of Welsh and offer opportunities to do so where possible.

Studying at the School of Biosciences opens up so many opportunities; it's not just about the lectures and practicals, but also developing your own skills. The staff encourage you to be driven and motivated; in my first year I was able to get work experience in the microbiology labs and have a paid summer placement. The pastoral care is brilliant; I found the transition to university quite difficult but the support available does make it easier. If you're looking to be a happy and satisfied student, this is definitely the place for you.
