Cardiff Uni is officially Wales’s top ranked university

Take that, Swansea


Cardiff University has officially been confirmed as Wales’s top ranked university according to The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2021.

Swansea University initially held it’s place as number one in the 202o guide, but Cardiff quickly nabbed it’s place for 2021…better luck next time, Swans.

The Good University Guides are made up of nine indicators which include: student satisfaction with teaching quality and their wider student experience, research quality, graduate prospects, entrance qualifications held by new students, degree results achieved, student-staff ratios, service and facilities spend, and degree completion rates.

Pro-Vice Chancellor for Education and Students, Claire Morgan said “I’m delighted we’ve regained our status as the number one ranked university in Wales in The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2021.”

“The last year has unquestionably been one of the most challenging for our staff and students – and continues to be so.”

“To witness sustained performance as well as improvements is testament to the commitment and expertise of our staff and means that we continue to move in the right direction.”
