Studying BSc Psychology at the University of South Wales has been such a rewarding experience! The course covers so many interesting topics, from health psychology to therapeutic interventions, and the lecturers are super supportive and knowledgeable. They make even the tough concepts easy to understand. The best part is the practical side— there are loads of opportunities to apply what we learn, whether it's through research projects or lab sessions. The resources here are great too, with access to amazing facilities and plenty of help when you need it. The campus in Cardiff is a bonus-such a lively, welcoming city with lots of places to study and relax. I've learned so much and feel ready to take the next steps in my career. If you're thinking about studying psychology, l'd definitely recommend USW! read more

As a student at the University of South Wales, I have found my experience to be quite fulfilling in various aspects. The campus environment is vibrant and welcoming, with a strong sense of community that makes it easy to feel at home. The lecturers are knowledgeable and approachable, always willing to offer guidance and support. The university offers a broad range of resources to support academic success, including well-equipped libraries, online learning tools, and workshops to enhance skills. The diversity on campus also adds to the experience, fostering a culture of inclusion and exchange of ideas. One of the highlights for me is the balance between theoretical learning and practical application. There are ample opportunities for hands-on experience through placements, internships, and collaborations with local businesses. This focus on employability is one of the reasons I chose USW, and I feel confident about entering the job market after my studies. read more
