Here's what Cardiff University says about its Cymraeg a Newyddiaduraeth course.
Drwy gyfuno’r Gymraeg a Newyddiaduraeth, byddwch yn ennill cyfoeth o wybodaeth a sgiliau trosglwyddadwy, gan agor drysau i amrywiaeth o lwybrau gyrfa.
Gall astudio gradd gydanrhydedd eich symbylu a rhoi boddhad, wrth ichi sylwi ar nodweddion tebyg a gwahaniaethau rhwng y ddau bwnc.
Mae cwrs y Gymraeg yn berthnasol i’r Gymru gyfoes ac yn cael ei ddysgu gan Ysgol sydd wedi’i chydnabod am ansawdd ac effaith ei hymchwil. Nod y cwrs yw cynhyrchu graddedigion sydd â dealltwriaeth drwyadl (yn academaidd ac yn ymarferol) o’r iaith Gymraeg, ei llenyddiaeth a’i diwylliant, lefel uchel o sgiliau ieithyddol ar lafar ac yn ysgrifenedig, a sgiliau cyflogadwyedd a chreadigol datblygedig sy’n berthnasol i’r Gymru fodern.
Mae’n cynnig modiwlau craidd a dewisol i roi sylfaen i chi o ran iaith a llenyddiaeth, yn ogystal â chyfle i arbenigo mewn meysydd sydd o ddiddordeb personol neu o ran eich gyrfa.
Nod cyffredinol Newyddiaduraeth yw arfogi myfyrwyr i ddod yn ddinasyddion gwybodus mewn cymdeithas sy’n orlawn o gyfryngau. Mae’n dechrau gyda'r rhagdybiaeth fod angen i ni ddeall y rôl ganolog a chwaraeir gan y cyfryngau a’r diwydiannau diwylliannol er mwyn deall cymdeithas fodern.
Byddwch yn gallu cymryd rhai modiwlau ymarferol, ond mae pwyslais y radd yn academaidd a dadansoddol.
SYLWER: Nid yw’r cwrs hwn ar gael i fyfyrwyr Cymraeg ail iaith. Bydd ymgeiswyr i'r radd hon fel arfer wedi astudio rhai cymwysterau ôl-16 drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg. Os nad ydych wedi gwneud hynny ond eich bod yn teimlo bod eich Cymraeg o safon cyfatebol, anfonwch e-bost at [email protected].

Students are talking about Cardiff University on The Student Room.
Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.
