About us

Glyndŵr University is the youngest university in Wales – an educational institution that champions the spirit of enterprise with an outward-facing philosophy. This has heralded an exciting new era for Wrexham, North Wales, the borderlands and the academic world.

The facilities are excellent, as you’d expect from a university that values the spirit of enterprise and puts employability at the heart of everything it does. Courses are designed to provide employers with exactly what they’re looking for and many have been created with their direct input. Support, both in helping students plan their careers and their lives outside of the world of work, is always on hand via our careers team, as well as other expert advisers and counsellors.
