DMU is a Great Uni which supports students throughout their degree and especially post degree. They provide amazing opportunities like DMU global as well as societies and extracurricular activities. I would recommend DMU to anyone who is looking for a great city and educational experience! Ive had the opportunity to visit New York through the DMU global scheme.
More toilets on campus , maybe a costa ,extra support towards dyslexia
Every lecture hall u need is all on campus in close proximity to student halls to making it less stressful.

Overall, this university changed my life and the way I feel safe walking around, the campus and the teaching/staff are so lovely. It is just peaceful here. There is always room to improve and be better but I wouldn't know what to say on that part, haven't had any issues at all.
Overall a great experience at DMU. The societies are fun and inviting, and most of the lecturers are available to help if you need it. Some issues with accessing software which is currently being looked into, but otherwise good. The 24 hour library is useful, but doesn’t have some of the specialised computers for the work I have to do. Had some issues with a lack of feedback on assignments, but it has been reported, and doesn’t happen often.
Faculty and Student union are extremely helpful and available at all times. Personally for my course, the topics and method of teaching is quite easy. As the Class Rep, any questions or concerns that my classmates have is taken to the teachers and instantly resolved. The believe interactive events online for international students would be helpful, knowing 2-4 students before coming to the uni would have personally helped me to make friends

Since my course has a lot of sketchbook work the only downfall is printing price as there are alot of printing needed but regarding utilities and software it’s great.

My course is amazing and my teachers are lovely. We have been taken to LA for our course for an amazing price. The student union is a nice setting however prices are very expensive in there and the food court. You can go to the One stop across the road and get a cheaper meal deal! The placement team at my university have been really helpful helping me secure a placement year.
Best- good support and overall good facilities Worst- amount of pressure and lack if opportunities, such as medicine degree
I enjoy every expect of the university

It all depends on the tutor because he/she is the only one’s who can make your uni experience better.
Best: meeting people, being part of a society & playing volleyball. Worst: online learning
Very good facilities available in the campus for overseas students and home students
DMU Global was nice
It is really great university in terms of studying and proving students with all the support they need , specially placement and study abroad opportunities they offer students.

Covid19 and the striking has completely disrupted my whole 3 years
Lecturers give no support at all especially during this year with all the striking. Students are having to teach themselves and we are not getting the grades we deserve
