Due to Covid-19 the experience hasn’t been what I anticipated but that can’t be helped. Hopefully prospective students will have a different, better experience as everything is returning back to normal. read more

3 hours a week, lecturers are not top quality. Lecture slides are dull. Not many on course so good for interaction. Lots of reading set in own time. No designated time with personal tutor read more

I only put 3 stars for value for money because I generally don't have much contact time, but I do also understand that my course is a lot of independent study. That said, the contact hours I do have- the content is so interesting and the teaching is engaging! As for jobs, Leicester's Criminology dept. do a pretty good job at providing you with a careers fair relevant to your degree! There is also a module you take which introduces you to possible career paths and thats where I've found my current career path. read more

I went to DMU last year and can honestly say that University of Leicester is superb in comparison. The standard of teaching is superb and the facilities are excellent. They have now introduced a scheme where lectures are now recorded onto a online database , so you can go back and listen to the lecture anytime if you missed anything, I think this is possibly one of the best things read more
