Location:
Students can live in one of the most scenic locations in the UK as they study. Nestled between the mountains and the sea, Bangor is more than just beautiful: it’s a playground for nature lovers. Hike, climb, kayak or canoe in nearby Snowdonia National Park, head to the beaches on Anglesey or take the plunge on Europe’s fastest zip wire. Clubs and Societies: The award-winning Students’ Union clubs and societies are all free to join. Students have around 200 to choose from so they are bound to find something they like. In the 2020 What Uni Student Choice Awards, Bangor University was voted 2nd in the UK for Sports and Societies. The location near Snowdonia also means that adventure is on the doorstep. Teaching Excellence: Bangor offers the highest quality teaching in a supportive learning environment and students can be assured that they will be taught by lecturers who want to see them thrive.
