About us
We pursue the highest standards of research, education and training.
We exist to create and share knowledge and to educate and train individuals to become exemplary clinicians, scientists, teachers and innovators. Our overall aim is to enhance the health of the people of Wales and the wider world.
Our research and clinical innovation is at the cutting edge, inspiring our teaching, informing national policy and practice and enabling the translation of research for the patient and public benefit throughout Cardiff, Wales and beyond.
Our students
Our student satisfaction rate is at an all time high of 97% from the 2016 National Student Survey (NSS), making us joint 3rd in the country.
Our medical students say that we are unique because of our 'real focus on the patient', the 'opportunity to work with teachers and researchers who are world experts', and being able to develop an 'excellent insight into what life as a doctor will be like'.
