Cardiff University to cut 380 posts after £20m deficit

Not sure what your agenda is here but if Cardiff University were to start to fail then Cardiff as a city would be in deep shit. Every overseas student attracted here pays fees of around £20k per annum before they then rent accommodation in the city and spend money here.

Given the global investment in Higher Education by China and other countries in recent years for Cardiff to be doing as well as it is on the global stage is nothing short of miraculous. However Brexit may just prove a hurdle too much to overcome as many important overseas staff have already left.

If you want to know what the return on investment is then this report should help:
