If you are not able to attend an Open Day but are visiting Cardiff, our representatives will be happy to meet you and show you around the campus for a general visit. We can also try to arrange a meeting with your intended Academic School.
Campus tours can be arranged by contacting the International Office.

If you would prefer to explore in your own time, our self-guided tour will direct you around campus, plus it includes interesting facts about our facilities. The tour should take approximately one hour.
