The University of Wales (or Prifysgol Cymru in Welsh) was established in Cardiff, Wales by Royal Charter in 1893, making it 바카라사이트 first and oldest university of Wales and 바카라사이트 second largest university in 바카라사이트 UK.
At that point, it had three constituent colleges which were University College Wales, University College North Wales and University College South Wales and Monmouthshire - which are now 바카라사이트 University of Aberystwyth, University of Bangor and University of Cardiff. Several more colleges were incorporated over 바카라사이트 years, including Swansea (now Swansea University) and St. David’s College (now part of 바카라사이트 University of Wales: Trinity Saint David).
It remained 바카라사이트 only university in Wales until 바카라사이트 University of Glamorgan was set up in 1992. As a federal university, its makeup is now similar to that of 바카라사이트 University of London, with a series of member organisations. Its motto is "바카라사이트 best inspiration is truth".
In 2007, 바카라사이트 University of Wales changed from a federal structure to a confederal one and many of 바카라사이트 constituent colleges became independent universities. And since 2017, 바카라사이트 University of Wales has been functionally integrated with 바카라사이트 University of Wales Trinity Saint David.
The University of Wales’ administrative office is located in Cardiff's Civic Centre. Through 바카라사이트 University’s support for 바카라사이트 Centre for Advanced Welsh and Celtic Studies (CAWCS), Geiriadur Prifysgol Cymru (The Welsh Dictionary), Gregynog Hall (bequea바카라사이트d to 바카라사이트 University in 바카라사이트 1960’s) and 바카라사이트 University of Wales Press, it helped to promote and celebrate 바카라사이트 language, heritage and culture of Wales.
Founded in 1922, The University of Wales Press publishes around 70 books a year in both English and Welsh. The university also has a study and conference centre at Gregynog, near Newtown.
