Liverpool Hope University pursues a path of excellence in scholarship and collegial life without reservation or hesitation. The University’s distinctive philosophy is to ‘educate in the round’ – mind, body and spirit – in the quest for Truth, Beauty and Goodness. We are proud of our rich heritage but we continue to look to the future as we invest in the University. In recent years we... have celebrated the opening of the EDEN (Education and Enterprise) building at Hope Park and the Creative Campus goes from strength to strength. The beautiful Renaissance style garden is blossoming and has now won several design awards.
This year, building work is underway to see even more changes on campus. The new Health Sciences Building at Hope Park opened in January 2016 and includes state-of-the-art labs, a 25m running track and a double-height robotics and engineering room for drone testing. This building is in addition to the recently built Our Place student social zone, the refurbishment to our library and a new cafe and lounge at the Creative Campus.
All of these changes serve to enhance the idea of Collegium and community at Liverpool Hope – something that has been at the heart of the University since its beginnings back in 1844. It was then, almost 170 years ago, that our first founding colleges The Church of England’s Warrington Training College (1844) and the Sisters of Notre Dame’s Our Lady’s Training College (1856) were established to provide teacher education for women. A century later, Christ’s College was built opposite S. Katharine’s where Hope Park is today, admitting its first students in 1964.
By 1980, the colleges had joined to form an ecumenical federation – the Liverpool Institute of Higher Education (LIHE). The late Archbishop Derek Worlock and Bishop David Sheppard wrote of this as being "a sign of hope" (Better Together). LIHE later became a single, unified College and was given the new name of Liverpool Hope to represent the mission of the college. Liverpool Hope University was born in July 2005, when the Privy Council bestowed the right to use the University title. Research Degree Awarding Powers were granted by the Privy Council in 2009.
With a history extending 168 years, Liverpool Hope has developed a strong tradition of scholarship and research in key disciplines. As the only ecumenical university foundation in Europe the University’s work has been shaped by Christian principles but embraces those of all faiths and none. The excellent academic record of our students is supported by  pastoral care and, as one of Britain"s smaller universities, Liverpool Hope values the individual - in the words of Cardinal Newman knowing her children one by one. Care, concern and support for students are always a priority. Liverpool Hope has two main teaching campuses. Hope Park is situated in a leafy suburb of Liverpool and is a mini educational village. The Creative Campus in Liverpool city centre is the home to our creative and performing arts subjects. Both campuses have seen major investment over the last five years, so traditional architecture now sits beside contemporary buildings and facilities. The University places great emphasis on the bringing together of research excellence and top-quality teaching. This is facilitated by a community of academics and scholars who are of the highest calibre. This research-informed teaching enables our students to develop into rounded and employable graduates who can take their place confidently as global citizens in the 21st century.
At Liverpool Hope University, we offer a wide range of undergraduate degrees, both as single and combined honours. Such a variety means you can choose a degree that’s suitable for you and the career you want to pursue. Our excellent academic record and supportive environment are complemented by the beautiful settings of our campuses, making Liverpool Hope a very special place to study.
We place a great emphasis on bringing together research excellence and top quality teaching. The aim of our research-led teaching is to ensure that you develop into a rounded and employable graduate to take your place in society and make a difference in whatever career path you choose.
We offer two types of degrees: Single Honours and Combined Honours. All of our degrees, including UCAS codes and entry requirements, can be found in the Undergraduate Courses section of our website. If you choose to study a Single Honours degree, you are choosing to study one main subject area. Single Honours degrees are a good choice if you have a particular subject area you want to study in more depth. If you choose to study a Combined Honours degree, you are choosing to study two subject areas equally. Combined Honours degrees are a good choice if you are interested in more than one subject area.
At Liverpool Hope University, our degrees follow an integrated curriculum. This means that instead of set modules and module options in your second and third years, the curriculum is set across all three years, with a small element of choice. It means less of a fragmented study of each subject area, with each year developing your knowledge of the subject as a whole, providing you with a more rounded knowledge base in your chosen degree.
