Art, Design and Media
A wide range of full time courses are available, with options for A Level and vocational study. Most of these courses are delivered at the Gorseinon Campus, the vocational courses in Music Performance are taught at our Llwyn y Bryn Campus in the Uplands area of Swansea.
The College’s music department is the biggest in Wales and we run a range of ensembles including a choir, orchestra and jazz band.
The College also has excellent links with specialist colleges. We are a regional audition centre for Arts Ed London, Mountview Academy and National Youth Theatre.
Our students have the opportunity throughout the year to perform at corporate College events such as our Annual Student Awards and Graduation Ceremony.
The creative industries are the fastest growing part of the UK economy and the potential for future growth is clear. All around the world, creative talent from Wales is making its mark, turning imagination into industry and providing rewarding careers.
