UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH WALES

The University of South Wales is situated in Wales, which is in the Western half of the United Kingdom. The University has campuses in Cardiff, the capital city of Wales, Pontypridd, which is 12 miles north of Cardiff and Newport, which is approximately 12 miles northeast of Cardiff.

Cardiff is Wales’ capital city and offers countless bars, shops, restaurants and coffee shops as well as lots of cultural experiences. Cardiff Castle takes up centre position, surrounded by the beautiful Bute Park, Millennium Stadium, Cardiff Museum and smaller galleries and theatres.

The University has three campuses which are located in Pontypridd, Cardiff and Newport. The Treforest and Glyntaff campuses are both based in Pontypridd and are a short 10 minute walk apart. A 20-minute train journey from the Treforest campus is ATRiuM, situated in the cosmopolitan city centre of Cardiff.

The University is investing over £130million in its facilities across all three campuses to ensure students get the best possible learning experience. This exciting programme of developments will see a radical change in student facilities across the University. Cardiff School of Creative & Cultural Industries is based in the city centre of Cardiff at ATRiuM. It’s a multi-million pound purpose built facility with studios, darkrooms and practice rooms. The on-campus Students’ Union and cafe will keep you going during a long day in the studio.
