Welsh language opportunities

An ability to speak Welsh can be very useful both during and once you have finished your course and have started your career within your particular professional field.

Whether you are already a Welsh speaker or just keen to learn, we can support the development of your Welsh language skills. We have Welsh speaking personal tutors who are happy to support and work with you bilingually too. You can also take written exams and assessments  in Welsh.

Where possible, you can work with Welsh speaking supervisors or assessors during some of your placements and work with other Welsh speaking students in tutorial sessions and on group assignments.

We offer 5-40 credits through the medium of Welsh in some of our undergraduate courses. Students who are eligible can apply for scholarships through the University and the Coleg Cymraed Cenedlaethol's scholarship scheme. You can find out more about these scholarships and our Welsh language activities and opportunities by visiting the website for Scholarships for studying in Welsh.

The University also offers free Welsh language lerarning courses to our students. We provide free short taster sessions, beginner courses, and advanced courses, welcoming new learners and those looking to improve their Welsh.

If you are interested in any aspect of our Welsh medium support and provision, then please discuss with your personal tutor as they can signpost you to further information.
