Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol Cardiff University Branch
We work with the University to inspire and encourage students and staff to use their Welsh language skills and become part of our thriving bilingual community.
Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol, meaning Welsh National College, has a branch in every university in Wales. It encourages students and staff to join each branch to use and improve their Welsh language skills and enjoy the benefits of being part of the community.
Our Branch works with colleges and schools to develop and improve their Welsh or bilingual educational provision for students. We also offer various scholarships, promote employment opportunities, and organise Welsh language social events, ensuring everyone can live, work, and study through the medium of Welsh.
The Cardiff Branch works with:
- The Dean for the Welsh Language
- Yr Academi Gymraeg
- Students’ Union Vice President Welsh Language, Culture and Community
Join our vibrant bilingual Branch community to develop your valuable bilingual skills and advance your career. Staff members are eligible to apply for funding, and we offer a wide range of scholarships, bursaries, social events, and opportunities for students who choose to study in Welsh.
