Postgraduate Prospectus 2013 - Swansea University

Our international
community
Since its foundation in 1920, Swansea University has embraced opportunities to think
globally. The vibrant mix of nationalities and cultures on campus greatly enriches our
learning and teaching environment.
Whether it’s the colours and sounds of the annual International Student Festival, learning
Japanese or Arabic with the student societies, or swapping notes and ideas with students
from far-flung places, the rich diversity of cultures that finds a home in Swansea is an
integral part of your student experience.
We understand the type of support our international students need to help them settle into
student life in a new country.
This section will tell you about:
• the support we provide, from your first enquiry until you graduate
• how we help our international students to improve their English language skills
• the International Foundation Programme that provides an alternative entry to our degrees
