Mature student review
I have enjoyed my time at the University, however as a mature student I have not experienced the social clubs etc. There are sometimes some organisation/administration difficulties. They handled themselves well over the pandemic with moving studies online, however some of our lectures still remain online.
My Rating : Law at University of Hertfordshire
I look back on my years at the University of Hertfordshire with genuine gratitude and yes, even a little fond nostalgia. Having completed my LLB in Commercial Law, my LLM in Business Law and then the LPC there, I experienced both the rigour of a top-flight law education and the warmth of a truly supportive campus community. Standout Classes & Learning � Commercial Contract Drafting (LLB) with Simone Smart, Head of the LLM Bar Practice Course: Simone�s workshops felt like real-world negotiations, she�d split us into negotiating teams, then debrief every clause on indemnities and force majeure. I still use her �red-lining� technique whenever I draft client contracts. � Corporate Governance & Ethics (LLM) under Professor Penny Carey, Dean of the Schools of Law & Education: Penny wove in the latest boardroom scandals, from ESG walk-outs at FTSE giants to whistle-blower dramas and challenged us to weigh legal duties against social impact. Her probing questions in seminars sharpened my strategic thinking. � Advocacy & Professional Ethics (LPC) taught by Simone Smart alongside guest sessions from local barristers: These mock courtroom sessions, complete with robes in the replica Crown Court room at de Havilland campus were intense. Simone�s detailed feedback on our opening statements and witness examinations pushed me to refine both my argumentation and my confidence in front of clients. Professors Who Made a Difference � Simone Smart didn�t just teach modules, she mentored me on balancing persuasion with precision, whether in a boardroom pitch or a courtroom mock trial. � Professor Penny Carey encouraged me to question not only �what the law is� but �what the law should be,� inspiring my later blog article on AI ethics in legal practice. Campus Life & Community � Law Clinic & StreetLaw Society: Volunteering there wasn�t an add-on; it was where I found my purpose. Designing �Know Your Rights� flyers, running community workshops and seeing tangible impact on clients� lives remains the proudest part of my time at UH. � The Learning Resource Centre Caf�: Fuelled by too many flat whites, late-night study sessions with classmates turned into lifelines before big moots and into friendships that last to this day. � Campus Events: From the annual Law Ball at the Pavilion (where everyone realizes you can look glamorous in academic dress) to the pop-up careers fair in the Forum, UH blended academic excellence with genuine fun. Room for Improvement � Administrative Processes: Module-change requests and dissertation approvals occasionally felt like navigating a maze. A bit more clarity on timelines would have eased those pre-exam nerves. � Shuttle Services: The de Havilland�College Lane shuttle can get packed; an extra bus at peak times would be a welcome boost. Would I Recommend It? Absolutely. If you�re seeking a law school that balances practical, practice-led teaching with scholarly rigour, where professors know your name and invest in your growth, the University of Hertfordshire is the place to be. I left UH not only with strong degrees; LLB, LLM First Class, and a First-Class LPC but with the confidence, skills, and connections that have shaped my career. In short: UH challenged me, supported me, and helped me become the professional I am today. I would recommend it in a heartbeat.
