Postgraduate study
Our postgraduate courses are available in Welsh or as bilingual courses.
This is an opportunity to enhance your understanding of the subject and acquire skills that will benefit your career.
Doctorates
It is possible to study a PhD in Welsh or bilingually in nearly every subject.
Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol gives funding to students to pursue a PhD through the Research Scholarship scheme. They also offer support and training of a high standard to new researchers.

Initial teacher training
We provide opportunities for teacher training through the one-year postgraduate course, the Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE).
We also offer this course on a part-time basis, or while you work, over two years.
