About Cardiff University & Cardiff Metropolitan University
The HE Roadshow is a partnership between Cardiff University and Cardiff Metropolitan University. Both institutions offer various courses and opportunities available to prospective students.
Established in 1883, Cardiff University boasts an international reputation for excellence in teaching and research, built on a history of service and achievement. Our membership of the 24-strong Russell Group of research-intensive universities solidifies our place as one of the UK’s leading academic institutions.
Ambitious and innovative, we’re committed to creating and sustaining a welcoming, inclusive, accessible, and friendly learning environment for all of our students. Our academic staff are driven by curiosity and imagination, and many are leaders in their fields, creating a stimulating environment for you to learn.
The University is divided into 24 academic schools, located across two thriving campuses: Just a few minutes’ walk from the city centre, the majority of our academic schools can be found on our Cathays Park Campus, amongst the impressive buildings, parks and wide tree-lined avenues that form Cardiff’s attractive civic centre.
Our Heath Park Campus is home to three academic schools offering programmes in medicine, dentistry, and healthcare, sharing its site with the 1,000-bed University Hospital of Wales – the third largest teaching hospital in the UK.
Cardiff Metropolitan University delivers professionally recognised degrees, together with impactful research and innovation, in art and design, business and management, education and public services, sport and health sciences, and technologies and engineering.
As a driver of education and social transformation, we work with purpose to ensure that every student can realise their full potential to their own and future generations. We are a catalyst for innovation and the economy, and a key contributor to inclusive and sustainable growth both nationally and internationally.
A collaborative and compassionate community, our values of creativity, diversity, freedom, and innovation are lived through the behaviours of our staff and students; by our leadership, trust, courage, and accountability to each other, and to our partners.
