About University of Wales
Founded by Royal Charter in 1893, the University of Wales is the degree awarding body for the vast majority of higher education students in Wales, as well as for many at other higher education institutions in the United Kingdom and overseas. Annually, it awards around 15,000 initial degrees and more than 4,000 higher degrees, making it the second largest degree-awarding body in the United Kingdom. The number of students worldwide, pursuing University of Wales degrees, is more than 80,000 and their studies cover almost the full range of subjects. The University’s very successful and highly regarded international validation operation is an important dimension of its work. This enables overseas institutions to offer the University of Wales degree at an equivalent standard to the degree offered in Wales itself.
The University of Wales has a tradition of excellence in education and its qualifications are well sought after in the United Kingdom and internationally. The University of Wales is also a member of the Association of Commonwealth Universities.

The costs are also far below equivalent awards at the local universities.
