There is a lot to say about myself! I currently study education studies: primary in Welsh so I have numerous options from here. My main goal is to be working with children. This could include a job in teaching or in any other education setting or environment. I have numerous hobbies such a Football and I often go down to Swansea and watch my team play. I also play county darts and have a real passion for the sport. I also love the social life in university and meeting new people and trying out different things! It's a very fun experience!

Hiya! My current plans for the future are to hopefully perform on stage or infront of a camera. I have a big passion for the creative arts and love to act and perform!

Film & TV (MArts, BA)
I came to this degree as a mature student having done a Higher Education access course, and chose to study at UWTSD Swansea because its Film & TV course is ranked the best in Wales. My main creative passion is writing and I intend to use the skills that I develop in this degree to become a screenwriter when I graduate.

Adventure Filmmaking (BA)
As well as my studies I run a business in manufacturing. I self taught photography over a number of years around work and eventually decided that I wanted to learn filmmaking skills as well, so I applied for the adventure filmmaking course on a part time basis.
Over my time on the course I have learnt a lot of valuable filmmaking skills but it has also reinforced and developed my passion for photography. The adventure side of the course also helps me develop as a leader and educator in the outdoors.
Using all of the skills I have learnt so far and continue to learn on the course I would love to one day lead photography and filmmaking workshops in the UK and abroad.

Documentary Photography and Visual Activism (BA)
Over my four years studying at UWTSD I have become involved in lots of sectors within the university as student representative and have a broad knowledge and experience of the courses. Through the foundation course in art and design I have gone onto a degree in photography, here I love to explore all the different photographic processes that reflect sustainability and ecology as well as empowering women. Also, my experience with learning support with dyslexia and living in different student accommodations I hope will help and answer any worries you may have starting university.

History (BA)
Hi, I am Harriet, a first year History student at the University of Wales Trinity St David. I am a keen historian who is primarily interested in early modern history, particularly empires, royalty and gender studies. Outside of my interest in history I am very much interested in fashion, makeup, The Sims franchise and food. Alongside this I am also a keen traveller and love to go on holidays, whether in the UK or abroad and learn about new places and cultures! On my bucket list at the moment is to go to Rome and the Holy See, as well as Kensington Palace, the childhood home of Queen Victoria! After University, I am planning on going into teaching with the aim of becoming a History and Politics teacher at Secondary School and/or Sixth Form/College. Feel free to message me if you have any questions about studying at UWTSD or are interested in studying History at any university! 😊

Graphic Design (BA)
I’m not sure what life will bring my way so my goals are never set in stone, I’m more of a take life as it comes sorta guy. But some of my aspirations are to create graphic clothes, in cool new funky ways we don’t really see in shops. I also wanna change the world and let my views known in anyway possible:)
Jasmine
University of Wales Trinity Saint David
Surface Pattern & Textiles (MDes, BA)
I came to Swansea as a born and raised Londoner with no clue what to expect out of a seaside, small Welsh city.
I have a background of fine art which led to an interest in design and pattern making, leading now to a career interest in trend and forecasting once I complete my degree this year.
Staying in Swansea has definitely opened my eyes to the balance of city life and exploring nature. One weekend could be an all day coastal walk, while the next a pub crawl around town. It really has it all.

Matt
University of Wales Trinity Saint David
Medieval Studies (MA)
Hi there, I'm Matt, a MA Medieval Studies graduate based at UWTSD Lampeter. I completed my 2nd year of masters (YES - Masters at Lampeter are split over 2 years full time!) following my completion of my undergraduate degree in BA Archaeology and Medieval Studies, also at Lampeter. I have a huge interest in the Medieval period in general, although I am especially passionate about the Viking Age. Lampeter has also given me the opportunity to combine my interests with a new hobby in the form of re-enactment, with the Medieval Society on Campus giving me the opportunity to spend the weekends re-enacting at various castles all over Britain. If you have any questions regarding the university, campus, courses, student life, or anything else, please don't hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to hearing from you and helping you on your journey to university.
