Welsh Opportunities at UWTSD
UWTSD is a naturally bilingual University, where Welsh and English coexist in harmony. A high percentage of our staff and students across our campuses can speak Welsh and it is therefore possible for Welsh speakers to receive support through the medium of Welsh in all aspects of student life here. We are also very proud to support any student who wishes to learn Welsh or develop their Welsh-language skills during their time at the University.
I’ve made so many new friends by choosing to study through the medium of Welsh. There is a close-knit community of students and we get loads of new experiences including nights out, attending inter-col and trips abroad.

Welsh Medium and Bilingual Courses
Here at UWTSD we have a range of Welsh medium and bilingual courses across our campuses. Perhaps you haven’t considered studying for your degree or part of your degree program through the medium of Welsh until now, or perhaps you don’t feel confident about studying your program entirely through the medium of Welsh. Don’t worry, you are in good hands. You will get support from the University throughout your studies, you won’t be alone.
Think of the doors that will open for you as graduates if you have studied at least part of your degree program through the medium of Welsh!

I was a bit unsure through the medium of English so to have the opportunity to study the BA Perfformio course through the medium of Welsh is a privilege. In addition, the scholarships offered by Coleg Cymraeg provide a huge boost to students studying in Welsh.
