History
The Swansea University College of Medicine was formed (as the School of Medicine) in 2001 as a teaching and academic centre in collaboration with the University of Wales College of Medicine (itself now part of Cardiff University). The school launched a 4 year fast track graduate entry programme in 2004 in collaboration with Cardiff University.
In 2007, the Welsh Government allowed the College to offer full medical degrees to students whereby students can take a full four-year degree course at Swansea University.
The School of Medicine has a rugby team called Swansea Medicals RFC
