Dmu is a great place to study because you only do one module at a time which helps balance uni with work or extracurricular activities. They have a wonderful careers service that help you with cv or cover letter writing
As a first year, I don’t think I have been exposed to enough of the university as a whole to have bad opinions of it. The facilities so far seem great to me, the student union is really nice and helpful and the campus is a beautiful and safe environment
The lecturers are amazing and have an high standard of teaching. They make you fall in love with the subject that you’re studying by making their lectures interesting and engaging.
You feel accompanied wherever you are. The support to students is something ive never seen.
I like the library, very convenient place to study and enormous choice of books
The best aspects of my time at De Montfort University have been the opportunities for growth, both academically and personally. As a third-year psychology student, I’ve been challenged to think critically, maintain high standards, and even stay ahead in my studies, which has deepened my passion for the field. However, the most challenging part has been adjusting to large class sizes and sometimes limited access to faculty, which can make it difficult to get personalized guidance. This has occasionally impacted my ability to delve deeper into complex topics, though it’s also encouraged me to become more self-reliant and proactive in seeking out additional resources.
The facilities are well equipped and diverse. Library is especially great for studying: the atmosphere and the vastness of resources for any topic is remarkable. The attendance system is very convenient, though it may lag sometimes.
PROS -The facilities are great on my course -Block learning results in more contact time with tutors & peers -Supportive staff CONS - The graphic design studios are closed on weekends
It's a very well laid out system, especially the libraries. Something I had never experienced before so it's quite unique and useful to use when needed. The support is amazing and helpful as I can send an email and I get a response within 1-3 days considering the multitude of students. As well I can book my own appointments on the App. I think the system already is amazing and there's a lot of opportunities for students, so I believe I can think of nothing to improve.
Encourages students to do things they never normally would Offers great support so even if you don't receive much financial support to take part in things like trips and placements abroad, dmu can help financially so you can gain as much experience as possible
The best aspects of my university is the diverse backgrounds of staff and students, and how you can receive feedback and learn from people with completely different views / opinions. On top of that I have loved how friendly and social everyone has been. But, the one negative I can think of is the inability to work from home properly on my course as we require adobe software, but we can only do so on campus computers. However this is quite minor as theres tons of facilities and accomodations are very close by the campus.
DMU felt like home as soon as I came in 2022! Location is amazing & the Vijay Patel is my favourite building. My lectures are so helpful in answering my questions or any concerns I have. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else!
The best thing about DeMontfort University is the facilities. There is always somewhere to go for anything that you might need. It could be improved by making students more aware of different aspects of the university.
This was unexpected because university services and education is great.
Everything is good
The block learning creates a much better university life balance. I have spare time to engage in societies and hobbies in addition to all the errands of living at university. The student support is excellent here to and I am very grateful for the autism team!
4.4
some information is a little hard to find as a first year but once you get the hang of it, it's not too bad. I think the campus is really well designed and feels lovely to walk through. very close to shops which is good.
the introductory weeks are quite long and boring but the information is necessary. tutors and lecturers are lovely
very nice room. pretty nice view. everything works as it should.
