Although it is a constituent college of the university, Merthyr Tydfil College is not officially part of the university. It is run by the University of South Wales as a separate organisation, incorporated as a company limited by guarantee owned by the university in 2008, [2] [3] primarily focused on offering further education to the local community in Merthyr Tydfil.
