Our DipHE programmes are hands-on and practical, with flexible learning options available so you can choose to study full or part time. <br/><br/>You can take a DipHE straight from college when you have completed qualifications like BTECs or A-Levels. Some people choose to take a gap year first or spend some time working before they start a DipHE. <br/><br/>Diplomas of Higher Education are perfect for people who want a university experience, but do not want to take a full undergraduate degree qualification. You get the support and teaching quality of a degree but don’t have to commit to three years of study before you begin. A DipHE can lead directly to a career as you will have gained valued skills and experience, or you might choose to continue with further studies. <br/><br/>**Our new home for computing**<br/>In Autumn 2022, we opened our new £65 million hub for science, engineering and the environment - and our new home for computing.
