Transforming the future of Health and Medicine at Herts

Your support. Their future. Our health.

Be part of a defining moment as the University of Hertfordshire delivers two transformative projects: a new Medical School that will train the first-ever Hertfordshire-educated doctors, and a next-generation Health Building, with advanced labs, simulation suites, and tailored spaces for each area of study.

Hertfordshire Medical School

Opening in September 2026, Hertfordshire Medical School will be a landmark development for healthcare in the county. As the county’s first medical school, it will train highly skilled doctors in a dynamic, interprofessional environment. Students will gain hands-on clinical experience from their first year, supported by high-tech facilities that mirror real clinical challenges and prepare graduates to thrive in practice.

The new Health Building

Set to open in 2028, our new, state-of-the-art Health Building on our College Lane Campus will become a hub for health, medicine and life sciences, with specialist spaces for nursing, midwifery, paramedic science, physiotherapy, social work, radiography and optometry. Advanced labs and immersive simulation suites will elevate learning and research, preparing our graduates for a rapidly evolving workforce.

Your support can accelerate these developments, empower researchers, and widen opportunities for future students who will shape tomorrow’s healthcare.
