The University of Wales, Newport (Welsh: Prifysgol Cymru, Casnewydd), was a public university based in Newport, South Wales, before the merger that formed the University of South Wales in April 2013. The university was founded as a mechanics' institute in 1841 and became an affiliated institution of the University of Wales in 1992. It had two campuses in Newport, Caerleon on the northern outskirts of the city, and a campus on the east bank of the River Usk in Newport city centre.[2]
In 2012 the university was ranked 111th out of 120 UK universities in the Guardian League Table for university rankings,[3] 105th out of 116 in The Complete University Guide[4] and 104th out of 116 UK universities in the Times Good University Guide.[5]
