Where to find us

Based in Hatfield just north of London, our university has a diverse and vibrant community that attracts people from all over the world. We offer a safe campus, close enough to London to make use of everything it offers, yet surrounded by the beauty of rural Hertfordshire.

We are a single campus university with two main sites: College Lane Campus and de Havilland Campus. The two sites are less than one km apart and are linked by pathways, cycle routes and the university shuttle bus.

Our School of Law occupies a smaller site in the cathedral city of St Albans, eight km away from Hatfield. The school is a short walk from St Albans mainline station.
