Health, Medicine and Life Sciences

As a student, you can look forward to research-based course content, opportunities to practice your skills in outstanding facilities, all within a supportive and inclusive environment. Our newly established school is organised into three areas, each specialising in life sciences, clinical, and health-related subjects across diverse disciplines that encourage lifelong learning.

Health and Social Work

As a UK centre of excellence, Herts is recognised as the largest provider of radiography education and the first in the country to offer paramedic degrees. Our new multi-million-pound Health building, set to open in 2028, will provide the next generation of nurses, midwives, radiographers, paramedics, and dietitians with an exceptional and unparalleled learning experience. You’ll be taught by our dedicated academic staff, whose guidance will help open the door to a rewarding career.

Life and Medical Sciences

Our life and medical sciences courses offer the opportunity to explore a diverse array of subjects, including biological and environmental science, psychology, and optometry. Students have access to our modern Science building, offering naturally lit laboratories and collaborative spaces, providing you with an inspiring environment that promotes multi-disciplinary learning and research, along with state-of-the-art sports facilities that include a sports injury clinic and performance testing centre.
