Cardiff Metropolitan University is one of the UK’s most progressive new Universities, with around 10,000 students based at its two campuses in Cardiff.  It consistently ranks in the top ten per cent of UK higher education institutions for graduate start-ups per student, and this spirit of innovation and enterprise lies at the heart of the University.   Programmes and research are undertaken across five key Schools:  Art and Design; Education and Social Policy; Sport and Health Sciences; Management; and Technologies.   The University is part way through an ambitious strategic plan to 2023 that will see it concentrating on enhanced student outcomes with growth in international activities, disciplinary breadth and overall scale.   The University prides itself on the role that translational research plays in enhancing the student experience.

The School offers a diverse and stimulating range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in education, humanities and social policy. Working collaboratively with external partners, schools and organisations we ensure that our programmes are discipline specific, innovative and professionally relevant.
