Alexander Volkov from Russia was a student with ICWS. He is now studying Advanced Computer Science at Swansea University.
I chose Swansea University because of its top rankings and the great opportunities for work after study. See pages 22 and 37 for Computer Science courses
Nonsi from Bulawayo was a student with ICWS. She is now studying BSc (Hons) Economics at Swansea University.
On completion of high school, my plan was to further my education abroad in the UK. I wanted to study in a small, safe city, because I had grown up in one. Swansea was perfect. With its affordable and laid back lifestyle, the decision to come to Swansea was obvious. See page 21 for Economics courses

WELCOME FROM OUR VICE-CHANCELLOR Swansea University is ambitious for its students, staff, and for the institution as a whole. We are on a steep upward trajectory making rapid progress towards our aspiration of being one of the top 200 universities in the world by our centenary in 2020.
Professor Richard B. Davies Vice-Chancellor, Swansea University
Swansea University is an ambitious UK university with a long history of working closely with industry, ensuring that courses are relevant to employers’ needs and that the University’s worldclass research has a real impact on global issues. Swansea University is on a strong upward trajectory which is attracting significant investment to provide the most up-to-date facilities. In the Research Excellence Framework exercise (REF) 2014, Swansea became one of the top 30 research universities in the UK. 90% of Swansea’s research was judged to be internationally excellent in its impact and a third of its research is now classed as world-leading. This means that students are taught by, and work alongside, some of the best academic staff in the country and even the world. It is a privilege to be the Vice Chancellor of such a successful university. We pride ourselves on being an international university with many of our degree schemes offering students the opportunity to spend a year or semester studying abroad at one of our partner universities

across the world, further enhancing career opportunities in a highly competitive graduate marketplace. The momentum we have gained as one of the UK’s most ambitious, research-led universities has made us a natural choice for many talented students, and the increase in applications to study here are a clear indication of our success. In the recent 2016 National Student Survey, overall student satisfaction at Swansea University was 90% and Swansea University has been awarded 5-Stars for excellence in the global QS Stars quality assessment, placing the University amongst other world-leading institutions to have also achieved 5-Stars such as Harvard and Oxford. I believe that we have achieved the right balance of excellent teaching and research, matched by a superb quality of life. I hope you will join us in our aspiration of being one of the top 200 universities in the world by our centenary in 2020.

Launch your global career at Swansea University In 2014 Swansea University achieved its ambition to be a top 30 research university. It soared up the league table from 52nd in 2008, to 26th in the UK. This is the largest jump in the rankings of any research-intensive university in the UK. Swansea University is comfortably one of the top 30 research intensive universities in the UK according to the recent government sponsored review of the quality of research in every university (The Research Excellence Framework – REF 2014). 90 per cent of Swansea research was judged to be internationally excellent in its impact and a third of our research is now classed as world-leading.
