Horizon Campus to Commence Cert He in Common Law (Diploma in Law) from the University of London
Open Day on July 16/ Merit Scholarships Available
Horizon Campus, which is a “Registered Center” of the University of London International Programmesin Sri Lanka, commenced its operations in the year 2011.The long term plan was to offer its degrees at its purpose built campus premises in Malabe. Apart from being a UGC/MoHE approved degree awarding body, Horizon also offers an international flavor via degree programmes offered through partnerships with 5 different international universities around the world.
However, its “Jewel in the Crown” was always its relationships with the University of London International Programmes. The vision and mission of the management of Horizon Campus was to become recognised by the University of London within as short a time as possible. To this end Horizon has always strived to maintain the required facilities required for students and achieve exam results which would satisfy the minimum standards required of partners of the University.
Having received its “Recognition” withing a very short time span of 2 years, It is then with great pleasure that the management of Horizon Campus announces to prospective students of the LL.B. degree programmes and the parents in particular, that we have achieved yet another milestone by being granted the right to provide tuition for the “CertHE in Common Law” which is otherwise well known as the “Diploma in Law“, to commence with this academic year. Horizon Campus takes pride in the simple fact that it is yet again the fastest in Sri Lanka, to receive this right/privilege from the University of London International Programmes. (www.horizoncampus.edu.lk) The CertHE in Common Law (Diploma in Law) is a qualification in its own right and provides a pathway into the second year of the LL.B. degree programme. The subjects taught on the CErtHE are as the same taught on the 1st year of the LL.B pathway. Thus the opportunity of entering the 2nd year of the LL.B., once qualified to do so via the CertHE study route.
The benefits of the CertHE in Law are many. Key amongst them is the fact that a student could study for the CertHE, with sufficient O/L qualifications, provided he/she satisfies the age requirements. Furthermore, this is also a qualification in itself, meaning that if a student wishes to exit theUoL Laws programme, he or she would have a world recognized qualification after 1 year of study. Furthermore, unlike the degree pathway route, the students could continue classes for the CertHE on fulltime basis and revert to the part time programme from the 2nd year of their study programme.
The facilities requirement acceptable to the University panel that Reviewed Horizon Campus, has also been supplemented by the excellent results achieved at the exams held over the past several years. This was over 85% for the LLB and 74% for the BSc Degrees, respectively. The “Commendation” received by Horizon Campus from the University of London is proof initself of the academic excellence achieved by its STUDENTS, over the past several years. Furthermore, Horizon Campus has also strived to provide students with the necessary international and industry exposure by organizing foreign transfer programmes, scholarship schemes which has assisted in relieving the financial burden to parents, transport facilities to and from Campus, organization of CSR Projects and extra- curricular activities through its Student Council, which delivers on the truly holistic atmosphere required for higher education.
Horizon Campus currently offers 4 Degrees through the International Programmes as follows LL.B. Bsc in Accounting & Finance Bsc in Banking & finance Bsc in Business & management
