We trace our history back to 1865, when the School of Art first opened in the Old Free Library in Cardiff. Since we developed into a university, we have remained rooted in Wales while providing practice-focused and professionally oriented education to students from around the globe.
With an increasing number of employers looking to employ graduates who have industry experience as well as academic achievement, work placements have an increasing importance in securing high quality employment. The successful completion of a work placement will allow a student to develop sector-specific skills as well as a detailed knowledge on an industry which will enable them to make informed choices regarding their future career path.
The Global Student Satisfaction Awards empower students across the globe to determine the best universities of 2021. Universities with a score above 4.0 (out of 5) in any of the 8 award categories, receive Badges of Excellence. Congratulations!

The Healthy University Strategy has evolved from the bottom up with commitment from all parts of the University, including the Students Union and is very much informed by the staff and student voice. The strategy largely developed out of a series of staff and student 'road shows' and other consultation opportunities which were held throughout 2015/16
Cardiff Met Sport, the Students' Union and the Cardiff School of Sport & Health Sciences work in partnership to support the student sport and recreation experience in the University.

Really, it was fruitful and rich in terms of content enabling me to combine my work experience with academic skills gained through the program. Moving through all those concepts have showed me deep insights how theories and businesses could meet to maximize good outcome.
The reason for seeing the university as an opportunity for me is more than ever, being well-rounded academically and professionally is the key to succeed in this global economy.
