Promising a brighter future from a proud past, living and learning at the University of Gloucestershire are an education for life. After nearly 200 years of teaching, we offer cutting edge facilities in inspirational locations, cradled by the rolling hills of glorious Gloucestershire. We are passionate about what we do, and practising what we preach.

Our motto, in spirit and in truth, means turning visions into reality, and in the 21st century we’re setting our sights on improving life chances, challenging unsustainable thinking as well as reducing our environmental footprint. Running on green electricity since 1993, whether it’s a student bus service or extra recycling bins, we constantly aspire to new ways of delivering a sustainable future.

We believe in education for all, not just in the classroom, but in how we live our lives. The University is committed to embedding sustainability within our teaching and learning programmes. Adopting an Education for Sustainable Development approach means that students learn through participating in real scenarios to think for themselves and develop their own personal and professional responses to sustainability.

Education at the University of Gloucestershire is much more than passing exams. We use a range of methods to assess your work, through essays, examinations, project work, group presentations, and field and laboratory reports.

SHML has a progressive managed agreement with the University of Gloucestershire whereby students who successfully complete our Higher Diploma of Hotel Management or our Associate Degree programme can go onto doing a one year top up Bachelor degree (Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Strategic Hospitality Management) at the University of Gloucestershire in England.

The University of Gloucestershire was chosen among several other institutions for a number of reasons:

· High curriculum compatibility with SHML for progression toward BA and Master levels;

· SHML deliberate intention of offering to our students the opportunity to complete their BA while experiencing two different countries;

· SHML has a deliberate intention of offering distinct language experiences;
