Welsh Medium Provision

Aberystwyth University is one of the main providers of Welsh medium Higher Education and provides undergraduate and postgraduate courses through the medium of Welsh and bilingually. Aberystwyth has a long tradition of teaching a range of subjects through the medium of Welsh and the aim is to increase the Welsh medium portfolio through internal investment and by taking advantage of national schemes to develop the provision. The University has a Branch of the Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol, and has been awarded grants by the Coleg to fund lectureships, scholarships, projects and modules.

The Centre supports academic departments in developing modules, courses and projects to ensure that students have a choice of provision and resources when studying through the medium of Welsh. The academic departments have a wide range of Welsh medium modules and degree schemes. Students may decide to study every module through the medium of Welsh in some departments or pick and choose Welsh medium and English medium modules so that they may study bilingually in other departments. Students who have learnt Welsh can take advantage of the available Welsh medium modules too as there is plenty of support available to use academic terms in both languages.

For more information on the modules which are available in departments visit their websites or see the module database.
