The Chancellor of the University of Wales is HRH the Prince of Wales and the Pro-Chancellor is the ex-politician Dafydd Wigley.
The University was composed of colleges until 1996, when the University was reorganised with a two-tier structure of member institutions in order to absorb the Cardiff Institute of Higher Education (which became the University of Wales Institute, Cardiff (UWIC)) and the Gwent College of Higher Education (which became University of Wales College, Newport (UWCN)).
Cardiff University and the University of Wales College of Medicine (UWCM) merged on August 1, 2004.
The University of Wales, Bangor (UWB) is a constituent institution of the University of Wales based in the city of Bangor in the county of Gwynedd in North Wales, United Kingdom.
One of the university's key selling-points is its location between Snowdonia and the island of Anglesey.
The university was founded as the University College of North Wales in October 1884 as the result of a campaign for better HE provision in Wales, and was incorporated by charter a year later, in 1885.
