Not upto the mark what I expected before I came here but, it's okay
Great uni everything is there for you
dmu is great place to students to study and live
DMU is a good university for international students. Good facilities are available. But career support is negligible.
DMU is a good university for having a range of diversity, it has everything you need.
Uni and staff are good and the courses are fun and well planned
The law department provides very good teaching. The lecturers are supportive and go out of their way to make sure you do well and understand the content.
Alright, pretty good............
Really good facilities and available equipment
Enjoying my studies so far. The course layout suits me and I enjoy the fact my course is very practical.
DMU is great and everyone is friendly. The staff are lovely and help.
Been loving the campus from what little I experience due to my course selection. The community is nice and welcoming, with little issue.
Nice buildings, good security,
Nice buildings, good security, good lecturers & feedback
I am enjoying my time at DMU, I enjoy the classes
The campus itself is very modern, I like the way it is set out and most of the lecture halls are very accommodating. However in the Vijay Patel building, room 4.05 has a lot of broken chairs.
makes it feel more laidback but not any less professional
Amazing university which is very diverse
De montfort university is really diverse, friendly and great quality learning
Great place to study, lecturers are very helpful and the access to areas are extremely helpful
I’ve really enjoyed my time at De Montfort so far! My tutors are great and very supportive
So far experience is good, really enjoying the campus life.
The university is good, the course I’m studying is going well. The facilities there are up to date and are fantastic
It’s good, nice to look at, lots of space.
I’ve not interacted with most of these so I’m not in the know
I've had a very positive experience with DMU, my course structure and tutors have been wonderful. There are lots of opportunities for students to engage in and enhance themselves as individuals and for the working industry.
very different from what I'm used to but so far I've loved it all. The whole university including the teaching staff are very involved in the needs and tastes of the students.
Good university with great opportunities
I can't fit all I have to say due to there unfortunately being a character limit so I'll have to put it in very short points. . Disorganised . Timetables constantly changing . Technology didn't work. . Expected to know things already. . Vague and inappropriate feedback . Workload making some students suffer with their mental health. . Lecturers ignoring emails. . Harassment is common. Including sexism and queerphobia. Ignored by uni and police.
De Montfort university is diverse
Very accessible Facilities and great travel distance
Good university with a gorgeous campus but student services aren’t very useful and funding is their main priority
The modules are great, with nice lectures. Feedbacks are given on assessements for improvement on future ones.
Overall great joy with faculty full of experience and student from different parts of the world sharing different culture gives extra bit of excitement
Very good overall, a must uni and work hard !!!
Everything is great about DMU.
DMU was a great experience for social growth and networking
Best of the best in teaching and other services including students wellbeing
Education and resources are just perfect. Exactly what I needed
Great library, nice staff and many societies
Great university campus as well as great teaching. Students union is always a good time especially if you’re in a society. wifi around campus is perfect with no issues so far.
Great university with great modern campus
the campus is so modern! we do have a more traditional building (Hawthorne) but its perfect. you have to cross a wonderful bridge over a a canal to get into the campus, it has swans. staff go above and beyond to help you and the student union (SU) are very useful, there's always free events going on which I love. we are a 2 min walk away from the city centre and I love how everything is in one place. My twin sister goes to UOL and unlike DMU it is one of those city universities meaning that the buildings are spread across the city unlike emu which is a campus uni so its all in one place. This means she sometimes has to take a bus to get to lectures in different buildings, emu feels like a real community.
It’s alright the university experience has been alright
Very welcoming and diverse and very educational
It’s a good university however it’s cos of Covid you do feel a disconnect from learning
You will enjoy DMU, you won’t regret it
Good effective and nice campus
Amazing facilities at the Vijay Patel building, I really enjoy getting my work done here
Great university. Amazing support from the health and life sciences faculty.
It was a very basic experience, unless you are doing business, dance, or some form of design you aren't really provided with much.
Lovely campus and facilities with many different societies to join!
Dmu is quite good university in term of facilities but academia isn't quite good and tutor are not quite helpful
Good university, no complaints really.
Brilliant uni, great night life. The support is immense especially disability support. Can’t fault the uni.
Decent wifi, the university is nice to look at. Good food, but for students it is overpriced. The library is good, has a lot of books. Most of the tutors are good, others are completely useless.
Never choose this university it was really waste no support from anyone, no proper education and guidance, no job opportunities, no value for certificate, no professor has knowledge, no laptops for students, no proper labs. Everything fake only you will pay money and return nothing by wasting time and carrier. In Leicester university of Leicester is good one, dmu ranks last and useless. University professors don't put mark for own work, they have a group who takes money and do the assignment and project, for which will get mark. But it was waste of money and no meaning of education, no further carrier to students. The university here supports lot of fraud groups to earn money and they will get commission amount. Here loss is only for students
This review is a bit unique since COVID has substantially lowered my ability to interact with the university, the campus, it's clubs and activities. The campus is large and it's not very easy to find where your course building is situated until the university tells you, I haven't joined any clubs or societies so I can't speak on them. Same could be said for the Students Union and Careers Service. The only thing I did was purchase university clothes. The t-shirts are good quality, but the print is slowly being removed with each was, but the hoodies are nice. The university Wi-Fi is excellent, but that should be par for the course with any university.
I started university in 2018, and I have had so much help and I had enjoyed so much at university. It helped me grow into a better person, and I love my course.
Dmu provided so much support throughout my time
Good school overall. You get the help you need.
Great uni, unfortunately unable to experience in 2nd year due to COVID but first year was good
Great university that is socially inclusive and there are many fantastic activities to do.
Loved the campus. Of course, covid dampened the spirit. But DMU communications were great and kept getting updates regularly. Nice experience overall.
the campus is really nice and so far the course and the professors are great.
Really good university, lovely staff,
I think corona has affected certain facilities
Havent had much inperson interaction with the university due to covid so i cant say, but from what i have seen the facilities are really good
The universities gorgeous campus and updated and well maintained facilities are one of the main aspects that drew me to DMU and ot hasn't failed to impress. Although unfortunately onyl assigned to onr building away from the main campus (bede island) this space still give us access to wonderful, industry standard quipment, usually quiet spaces and security and safety of being out of public way. The outdoor portion of campus and the cafe/food court are lovely spaces to hang out and eat and feel safe and well looked after with security/staff on hand everywhere.
I think it is a great university however I wish we had a partial refund for the Covid-19 situation as online university is poor compared to real lectures and there is a huge price difference in the two experiences
Overall my experience has been good at the university, I have made loads of friends and feel that the lecturers are friendly. During Covid the level of support wasn't how I expected and could have been improved and some of my modules were Terribly taught but I cannot put the full blame on the university as they did try there hardest during a difficult time. Would definitely recommend this university to younger people
DMU has been helpful with their students this year
I feel as though I have chosen a really good uni. Met amazing people so far. Cant say much due to being a first year during covid.
Great experience with dmu and enjoyed being a student in it
Best university that could ever imagine.
It is very modern and has a lot of facilities to use that really help a lot
i haven’t been on campus much so i cannot give a honest review
Been great, lovely people, meet loads of people
Nice location and campus I love my art building
The university provides support in many areas however during coronavirus its difficult to utilise them.
Dmu has a very spacious beautiful campus and the facilities they provided before COVID was great. However since COVID happened DMU hasn’t really been great at resolving student issues with teaching and hopefully they’ll listen to student reps more as they are the voice of their cohorts
Its hard to write a review about these things when its been corona but I'm sure they're great when everything opens
My experience at this univeristy has been positive.
With the academic year being predominantly online, the few lessons I attende on campus were more than satisfactory. The facilities had all the required material to enhance my learning experience. The Student Union kept students involved in online activities and that says a lot about the effort the put into making the student experience worth it. During the year, the university held a few online career talks and meetings to help point us, the students, into the right career path. Overall, with how challenging the academic year has been, I believe the university was able to succeed in making my year a great one!
Great facilities for creative subjects. Super accessible
I haven’t really been able to make use of the university as much as i’d like to but from what I have seen it’s been okay
I enjoy going to de Montfort uni, the staff are great and helpful, they care a lot about the students abs the buildings are all nice and accessible.
DMU has a rang of societies and many facilities on campus. It is very close to the city centre and everything is walking distance.
The best university for my course
Very organised, lovely staff and facility
Helpful, understanding about your situation
DMU is a great place to make new friends. The staff members are helpful and friendly
I’ve really enjoyed my experience at DMU
Lovely place, would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to study In Leicester
Had such a good time here at DMU. Lots to do and lots of societies you can join
Great University,friendly staff
As a first year student at DMU I feel that Merlin Heights is the best option considering the price and the distance from the university, it also has very good facilites such as the Sky lounge to chill out and watch films and the games room being my favourite because of the pool table. The rooms and kitchens are perfect for a first year student too as they are nice and spacious and cosy with a nice modern touch. The staff are also very helpful and polite and make sure your questions are always answered.
My first year experience at dmu has been very good despite the pandemic and not being able to go in for in person seminars for the majority of the year. Facilities such as the library are good.
DMU has many study spaces throughout the campus which have been very helpful
Good university staff are amazing
