Cardiff University is made up of two large, well-located campuses.
Cathays Park: With wide tree-lined avenues and elegant Portland stone buildings, it's an inspiring place to study.
Heath Park: Our dedicated healthcare campus, with four Academic Schools on the same site as the University Hospital of Wales.
Both campuses are within a short distance of Cardiff city centre where you’ll find beautiful green spaces, modern shopping centres, historic indoor markets and our very own medieval castle.
We provide our students with the opportunity to participate in both elite and recreational sport, across four main centres on campus.
There are over 60 clubs for men and women to get involved in, ranging from traditional sports (such as rugby and cricket) to martial arts, motorsports and watersports.
We also run a High Performance Programme that provides support for student athletes, recognised as having outstanding potential.
Sport is a big part of the culture of Cardiff and going to see an event or match is a quintessential part of studying here.
From world-famous sporting arenas like the Principality Stadium to Sophia Gardens and the international sports village in Cardiff Bay, there’s so many great venues offering a variety of sports at the heart of the Welsh capital.
