The staff are super friendly and kind. There is a lot of support and the campus is lovely. Derby is a great city to study in.

The course hours are really good, you learn a lot of content without feeling overwhelmed. You are sometimes placed with people from other courses which gives you more opportunity to socialise. The only issue I've encountered is sometimes in the biodiversity module it can be very Biology heavy which can be confusing for someone who hasn't taken biology a level.

We do seem to have constant issues of the boiler going, but it's usually fixed within the day. Being so far away from the other halls is a tad annoying as it makes visiting friends difficult and when I come back from a night out I usually end up having to walk alone. However, the room itself is really nice and definitely good value for money. Its a lot cheaper than other unis i looked at. The team here are also always so sweet and friendly.

I am super impressed with my first term at Derby. It was a friendly and professional start. I felt included and supported. The staff could not have done anymore to support us and give us a great beginning to university life.

The digital teaching tools are excellent.
