The lecturers and staff are friendly and the small class sizes mean that I get plenty of individual attention. I really look forward to my classes."

Pathways to the University of Hertfordshire

HIC is an Associate College of the University of Hertfordshire, offering students a modern and dynamic educational experience. We are committed to providing educational pathways and support services in an environment that encourages you to achieve excellence in your studies.

Undergraduate pathwaysAn undergraduate pathway is a single course comprising four stages of study. When you successfully complete the pathway you will be awarded a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Hertfordshire.

Depending on your chosen pathway, you can begin your studies in September, January or May.

University Foundation

University Foundation is Stage 1 of the undergraduate pathway. The transition from high school to university is a big step, perhaps the most important in your life. HIC’s university foundation is carefully designed with this in mind. The staff at HIC will provide you with ongoing guidance and support, as well as the knowledge and skills support you need to succeed in your future university studies.

First Year Degree

First Year Degree is Stage 2 of the undergraduate pathway. During this stage you will experience the equivalent of the first-year curriculum of the University of Hertfordshire Bachelor’s degree, but with smaller class sizes and extra academic

contact hours. Computer Science, Science and Engineering, Creative Arts, Life Sciences and Mass Communications students will join the first-year degree classes with the University of Hertfordshire students, with extra tutorial support from HIC. Law students will move from the University Foundation at HIC directly into the degree course at the University of Hertfordshire. The teaching and learning experience will enable you to fully develop your knowledge and understanding of each module to prepare you for the remaining stages of your pathway.

Second Year Degree

Stage 3 of the undergraduate pathway is the second year of your degree, which is taught at the University of Hertfordshire.

Final Year Degree

Stage 4 of the undergraduate pathway is the third (final) year of your degree, which is taught at the University of Hertfordshire.

Postgraduate pathwayA postgraduate pathway is a single programme comprising two stages of study. When you successfully complete this pathway you will be awarded a Masters degree from the University of Hertfordshire.

You can start your postgraduate pathway in January, June or October.

Pre-Masters

The Pre-Masters is stage 1 of the postgraduate pathway and takes either one or two semesters. It has been designed to prepare international students who have not qualified for direct entry to the University of Hertfordshire’s Masters degrees, in the schools of Business, Creative Arts and Life Sciences.

Undertaking a Pre-Masters will give you time to adjust to the rigorous research and independent study requirements of a UK postgraduate degree. This will ensure you get the most out of your Masters studies at the University of Hertfordshire.

Masters

Your Masters degree is stage 2 of the postgraduate pathway, and is taught at the University of Hertfordshire.

Intensive English LanguageIntensive English Language is a full-time programme specifically designed for international students who need to improve their English proficiency before starting their undergraduate or postgraduate studies.

The programme, which HIC offers at the University of Hertfordshire’s College Lane campus, is designed for students with differing levels of English competence.

You can start Intensive English Language in October, February or June.

Student services

HIC provides many support services that will help you achieve your goals. During your studies you will have access to services offered by both HIC and the University of Hertfordshire.

We encourage you to use the support services available and to contact the friendly HIC staff for advice and assistance as soon as you are having difficulty with anything. Remember that HIC is here to help you.

The Student Support team looks after all of our students’ needs. The team is responsible for:

• helping you enrol in your pathway

• helping you with your registration at HIC and the University of Hertfordshire

• orientation programmes

• student welfare

• study skills training

• learning support

• English language support

• disability support

• assignment assistance

• social activities.

Orientation programmeWhen you join us at HIC, your first week will be spent getting to know your fellow classmates, meeting our staff and adjusting to your new life in the UK.

During your orientation week, you will receive information on:

• living and studying in the UK

• accommodation

• fees and travel arrangements

• health

• finance

• travel and transport

• social events.

Our team will also help you:

• enrol in your pathway

• obtain your student ID card and email account

• receive your academic timetable

• get to know your new home.

Student activitiesIf you are interested in getting involved in sports and societies, the University of Hertfordshire is the place to be. It has some of the best sport and recreational facilities available at any UK university.

These include football, cricket and hockey pitches, courts, sports halls, a swimming pool, a gym and a climbing wall. There are over 100 student clubs and societies available, covering all of our students’ social and sporting needs, including Youth Excellence societies.

Being part of sports clubs and student societies opens up many opportunities during your time at university. HIC encourages you to participate in these activities as much as possible.

Students’ UnionThe University of Hertfordshire Students’ Union (UHSU), based on the College Lane campus, organises year round social events on and off campus, as well as organising clubs and activities for the student body. The UHSU also has a very successful employment agency that posts hundreds of jobs throughout the year. Through the agency, you can find casual or part-time work (if you are eligible to work in the UK) that will allow you to earn money while studying.

Counselling and supportThe University of Hertfordshire offers an excellent confidential counselling service and a dedicated medical centre, both based at the College Lane campus. International student advisors are also available to give you free advice on issues such as housing, welfare and immigration.

HIC provides one-to-one support through personal tutoring, on-line responses and a student drop-in helpdesk facility.

Multi-faith centreThe Key Centre is a multi-faith and multicultural centre, situated in a quiet area on the College Lane campus. It is the focal point for the spiritual life of the university, offering a place for prayer and reflection.

Join us on FacebookThe HIC Facebook page is a great way to keep up to date with the social activities going on at HIC. It’s also a great platform for sharing information, ideas, and meeting fellow students. Check us out at facebook.com/HICstudents.

Hatfield: a great place to live and learn

The University of Hertfordshire is located in Hatfield, just 20 minutes from London’s King’s Cross station and within easy access of the A1(M). Our two sites, College Lane and de Havilland, are situated less than a kilometre apart. A network of pathways, cycle routes and handy shuttle buses connect the two sites.

Old Hatfield retains many historic buildings, the most notable being Hatfield House. Elizabeth Tudor (later Queen Elizabeth I of England) was confined here for three years in what is now known as The Old Palace in Hatfield Park. The area is also recognised for its role in global aircraft manufacture due to the establishment of the de Havilland airfield and aircraft factory in Hatfield in 1930. During the next two decades de Havilland produced the world-famous Gypsy Moth and Tiger Moth biplanes, the Mosquito fighter bomber and the world’s first jet airliner, the Comet.

LondonYou will soon discover that it is not only your studies that offer you exciting challenges and experiences. Whether you want to visit museums, theatres or libraries; enjoy the city’s shopping, dining or nightlife; see world-famous historic attractions or simply sit and watch the fascinating array of people, London has it all in abundance. You can also easily hop on a train to France

from St Pancras station or take a flight to a more exotic destination from Luton airport, situated just 30 minutes away.

ClimateHatfield experiences a climate similar to almost all of the United Kingdom, classified as a temperate maritime climate, with average maximum temperatures in summer (July) being around 21.5 °C (70.7 °F); and in winter (January) around 6.5 °C (43.7 °F).

Postgraduate pathway at HIC and University of Hertfordshire

A postgraduate pathway will give you valuable insight into postgraduate-level studies in the UK. Most importantly, it will equip you with the knowledge and skills you need to excel in a taught Masters degree at the University of Hertfordshire.

The postgraduate pathway is designed for students from a variety of backgrounds who:

• require additional English language training

• have been away from studies for a period of time

• come from an academic background different to that of the UK

• are looking to fine tune skills already gained during undergraduate studies, employment or both

• are transferring to a new area of study.

The pathway will prepare you for future postgraduate studies by giving you confidence and expertise in areas relevant to your taught Masters degree. You will:

• develop a fundamental understanding of the basic principles relevant to your chosen degree

• learn numerical techniques, research methodologies and presentation and communication skills

• gain transferable skills that will help you in your academic studies and future career and enable you to make informed decisions

• achieve the necessary level of language competence for your chosen field of study.

Pathways Duration Intakes Structure AssessmentPre-Masters(Stage1)

One or two semesters

February, June and October

Five taught modules are delivered across 12 weeks, with English language skills integrated and developed within the taught modules. These modules will prepare you for your Masters degree, as well as focusing on the core academic skills required for postgraduate study.

Assessment for most modules is continuous, and includes tests, assignments and presentations.

Masters(Stage2)

One year September and January (depending on your chosen degree)

During this stage you will build on what you have learnt during the Pre-Masters stage. You will also increase your professional understanding of your area of study. A coursework Masters degree usually consists of a series of specialist modules in structured class, seminar or tutorial formats, with a final major project or dissertation component. A research thesis component may also be included, but this will be much shorter than what is required for a research Masters degree.

Modules will be assessed through examinations, assignments, essays or seminar performance. Assessment may also include individual and group projects and presentations. For most Masters degrees, preparing and submitting a major project or dissertation will form a large part of the assessment and final grade.

My HIC: Christine Johnny Kulai, Malaysia Business Administration

"The most impressive thing about

HIC is the small size of the

classes; everyone gets personal

attention from the lecturers.

I love the environment

because it is away from the

hectic city. I decided to study

business because I want to own

my own company in the future."
