Swansea University was runner-up for the Times and Sunday Times UK University of the Year award in 2019. The 65-acre new Bay campus has been the principal catalyst for expansion in recent years, adding new facilities for engineering, management and computer science. Swansea is a vibrant centre for culture, yet also has some of the UK’s most stunning coastline on its doorstep. It is also one of the UK's most affordable student cities.
