Getting a part-time job for a student at Swansea University is not that difficult due to the location of this university in a student-friendly city with a lot of employment opportunities. Many jobs are available on campus itself, such as in cafeterias, libraries, and administrative work, or some students find off-campus part-time jobs in retail, hospitality, and customer service, among others. The University's Career Development Centre aids in finding part-time jobs. However, this work should be balanced by academic commitments since international students on a student visa are allowed to work up to 20 hours per week during term time.
