About Us

Established in 1843, Coventry University has a long history of unlocking potential, breaking down barriers and making a real difference to lives around the world.

CU Coventry, part of the Coventry University Group, is dedicated to making higher education accessible to more people through our flexible study options. You shouldn’t have to put your life or career on hold in order to study.

CU Coventry is committed to providing a course that fits around you.

Take one module at a time

Students study one new module per block, making it much easier to focus and digest information as you'll only focus on one topic at a time.

A qualification each academic year

Our degrees are broken down so that at the end of each year, you earn a qualification. You can build up your CV as you work towards a degree.

We also have no end-of-year exams, perhaps the biggest source of stress for many students. Assessments are instead set by the course and could include coursework, presentations and more.

Many start times around the year

Each course is delivered in short blocks, usually six weeks in duration. There are six blocks in each year, and you can begin your studies at the start of any block.

You can study 3, 4 or 6 modules a year, depending on your course. In total, you need to study 4 for a HNC, 8 for a HND, or 12 blocks for a degree.

Payment by instalments

You can choose to pay up front, or in 4 or 6 instalments, to break up the financial burden. You’ll earn a recognised qualification at the end of the course, or you can decide to continue your studies towards a HND or degree at CU, or transfer to study a degree at Coventry University.

Now could be the best time for a change

Whether you’re looking for a new challenge, wanting to retrain with new skills or just missed the September boat, studying with us could be the best way to a new qualification for you.
