Based in Wrexham but with campuses and facilities around North East Wales and in London, Glyndwr University champions the spirit of enterprise and an outward-facing philosophy. Inspired by Welsh hero
Owain Glyndwr, the university aims to be bold, inspiring and enterprising in everything it does.
Courses are tailored to be relevant to industry and professional applications. Glyndwr University works closely with partners in business including Airbus, Rolls Royce and the BBC to ensure graduates get the skills they need to gain employment. The most recent figures from the HESA Destination of Leavers survey showed graduates had an employability rate of 94.7 per cent, and can expect an average starting salary of
£21,965.
With roots going back to 1887, Glyndwr has a long history of providing higher education in the region, but new campuses and centres including a high-tech
Centre for the Creative Industries and
Centre for the Child, Family and Society have opened in recent years, reflecting the university's vision for the future.
Wrexham itself is a vibrant, growing town in an enviable location. It's within easy reach of major cities such as Liverpool and Manchester, while also standing at the gateway to the stunning mountains and seascapes of North Wales.
Glyndwr University's courses are in international demand. From London to the Far East, the university is developing a diverse and rich community of learning. For example, courses are taught at the
London School of Management and Science and
Blake Hall College and relationships in higher education are blossoming between Glyndŵr University and universities in Singapore and Vietnam.
Students joining Glyndwr University can be confident it is an institution small enough to care, with the international significance to matter.
