Going to university should be a career and life-enhancing experience. We believe that, here at Swansea, we have the right balance, with excellent teaching and research matched by a superb quality of life.

By choosing to study with us, you will join a friendly and lively community of students drawn from over 100 countries. Our academic environment is top class and provides an ideal foundation for your personal and professional development. Factor in our award-winning student experience and unrivalled location, and it comes as no surprise to learn that our students

find their time at Swansea both life and career-enhancing.

The momentum we have gained as one of the UK’s most ambitious, research-led universities has made us a natural university of choice for a great many talented students, and the increases in applications to study here are a clear indication of our growing success. Studying at Swansea is very much a lifestyle choice, and I believe that we offer an ideal environment in which to live and study.

We look forward to welcoming you on campus.
