Facilities are decent here with a lot of courage from Professors. This is perfect place for study and finding my dream!
I like the campus and the facilities are good, it’s close to the city centre. I don’t know much about the student union so I can’t say much on the rating for that but it seems good.
I think that student support isn’t well advertised and the uni needs to do more with student social life. A lot of people at the uni feel like there is no activities.
I have liked everything about uni so far :)
The best aspects: - student union - facilities Worst aspects: - limited lecture hours - lack of things to do on campus despite it's size
Great location with a unique teaching style
De Montfort University is a fantastic place to study! Offering a welcoming environment, supportive staff, and friendly fellow students. My tutors & lecturers are incredibly helpful and always available to provide guidance and advice on how to enhance my studies. I would definitely recommend studying at De Montfort University!
- Amazing facilities and great lectures - some guest lectures I’ve had on my course aren’t relevant to the subject of my course and therefore not useful to me
Everything is great about this university.
The best aspect of my university experience so far is definitely the supportive nature of the staff here, especially by seminar tutors as they are within a closer proximity to you as a student. It is comforting to know that if you need help you can email without judgment and will receive specific information and support that is needed. The worst aspect of my uni experience for me would be managing finances as a student.
Everything about my time on the DMU campus feels really safe, thanks to the strong security systems in place and the adequate lighting that illuminates every pathway and common area. Security staff are visible and approachable, providing a reassuring presence, particularly during the evening hours. Furthermore, the campus fosters a supportive environment by providing accessible academic and extracurricular resources such as BASECamp, career guidance, DMU Global and the library learning system. If you need help with personal issues, someone is always available, from dedicated welfare advisors to peer-led study groups.
Friendly people both lecturers and students, no bad experiences
i like the block teaching set up as it allows me to focus on each assignment without becoming mixed up with too much information. my lecturer and seminar leaders are great and are very supportive when we are completing assignments. one thing i would improve is events for students during the day time, as i can often feel quite lonely.
It should have more scholarship opportunities for international students .
The best aspect would be the extracurricular activities that we have at dmu along side the sports societies that i have been enjoying recently and the worst aspect would be the far distance of my uni from my home country making it difficult for me see my family and friends
Very supportive and the facilities are great. The only thing that could be improved is access to Adobe software to complete work outside of school as this is not currently possible.
the best aspect of being at dmu would have to be the support from the staff and the facilities that we can use on campus to help us as students. The lecture rooms and the library are really helpful. The only bad thing would be i just feel there’s not enough to explore on campus and get a real feel of where you are.


The amazing facilities and support available. For example, the careers team is one of the best if not the best at supporting students like me assess my careers options and gain more confidence in applying to jobs such as placements and getting help with my cv and cover letter.
The best aspects is the engaging teaching methods and the assessments. I'm not sure if there is any worst aspect,
