Cardiff Metropolitan University

Proud of its reputation for providing a student-centred approach to learning and first-class teaching, and boasting a culture within which applied research flourishes, Cardiff Metropolitan University is a confident, forward-thinking higher education institution with a history tracing back to the 19th century.

With a wealth of tradition in providing an extensive range of career-focused programmes and training opportunities, many of which are accredited by professional bodies, Cardiff Metropolitan University consistently achieves one of the best graduate employability rates in the country.

The Cardiff Metropolitan University Disability Service provides an extensive range of advice, support and guidance to current and prospective students. Committed to promoting equality of opportunity and access for all, Cardiff Metropolitan University constantly reviews and develops its facilities to ensure that all students are able to take full advantage of the full educational experience on offer.

Cardiff Metropolitan University currently has around 1000 disabled students and encourages prospective students to visit the facilities and meet with the Disability Service team to establish the appropriate support requirements.

There are four Campuses at Cardiff Metropolitan University: Llandaff, Cyncoed, Howard Gardens and Plas Gwyn (Halls of Residence). Having invested £50m to improve its campuses and further enhance the student experience, the institution has recently unveiled a new Food Industry Centre, a new multi-purpose Campus Centre and is entering the final stages of construction work on the new state-of-the-art home for the Cardiff School of Management.

Attracting students from more than 125 countries, Cardiff Metropolitan University was also recently ranked as the best new university in Wales in essential guides published by the Times, Guardian and the Independent.
