University of Derby students on Whatuni say:

“The support from our Occupational Therapy Lecturers is outstanding, I've never known a group of people want students to do so well and support them with what they are doing in and out of university academically and personally. They uni have a great support system with the union, services and well-being.”

“Tutors offer feedback both verbally & written, when assessments are undertaken. The university offer a wide range of support if students feel that they need it, to support their mental health & well-being.”

“The support has been second to none since I have been studying. I have access to a personal mentor who has been a rock throughout, an escape from life and someone to keep me focused on my studies. The course leader and programme manager has been invaluable in providing options and support when I needed it. The tutors are incredibly supportive and in times of doubt or trouble they are fantastic.”
