The University of Hertfordshire – UH Hatfield history goes back to 1952, when Hertfordshire County Council built Hatfield Technical College on land donated by the de Havilland aircraft company for educational use. The college rapidly became a centre of excellence in mechanical and aeronautical engineering and the natural sciences, training engineers for Hatfield’s then dominant aerospace industry. As our reputation has grown year on year, both at home and overseas, we have had much to celebrate. Here are some of the milestones and achievements in over half a century of innovative higher education in Hertfordshire.
