Compliance with the Welsh Language Standards

The University works in various ways to comply with the Welsh Language Standards. This includes promoting students' and the public's rights to use Welsh, making the most of staff Welsh skills and establishing internal procedures for monitoring compliance. 

The material below explains how the University intends to comply, and its progress against the aims.
