I like the campus and the facilities. The look of it is quite modern and I like that it is all packed in one place rather than spread around town. Leicester is a nice town to live in, but it is not very big, so there isn't as many events as there may be in different locations. DMU is in the centre of Leicester which makes it easy to go to town after uni and this definitely makes the student experience better. I really like the university library, it is big and modern and students have access to many different programs and softwares. I also like that it is 24/7 so I can go there even very late at night. I wish other facilities (faculty buildings) were open on the weekends, it would definitely help me to get my work done.

My course is generally really fun. We are learning a lot of new content and it is quite enjoyable. I am not that familiar with the placement opportunities yet, but even though I am in my first year, I already had a chance to work on a funded research project. I really like that we have Wacom Cintiqs in every classroom and double screens at all stations in our studios, but I wish we had more space for doing things like motion capture. The classroom layouts are quite odd but it is something to get used to.

There is a lot of diversity in Leicester. It is not an expensive town to live in. Costs of things are not high at all. For me personally, there might not be many graduate job opportunities, but I know there is a bunch of part time work opportunities. I don't use public transport therefore I don't really know about it, but getting from Leicester to London or to other big cities is not difficult.

Generally the accommodation was quite good. The wifi was very fast and the room was nice, but for the price I was paying I wish my shower and bed were a tiny bit bigger. I didn't like that my room had a window just over the smoking area because everytime I opened the window, I would get the smell of smoke in my room. I liked the kitchen and the living area, but it lacked an actual table. The room's furniture was nice - it was solid and quite modern.
