i study film production and the lecturers are so wonderful and knowledgable. i feel incredibly supported by them, and i know they want the best from me, and it’s clear from the way that they engage with the class that they really care about what they do. i go to the markeaton campus and it’s so close to my accommodation (st chris) and has brilliant access to laptops and macbooks, and quiet areas with computers for studying when i’m not productive enough at home. the blends pop up shop is also great!! very cheap but genuinely the best coffee i’ve ever had. the facilities and access to things to help with my course are outstanding, and i feel like i’m getting the best support that i can get. i truly do recommend the university of derby, and i can absolutely see myself returning for a masters. read more

This is an excellent university to attend with fabulous lecturers. It would be nice to see some more clubs and societies. If you’re a Christian, there are many to pick from, but if you want something secular, you are more limited. read more

Just an ok university. Nothing special or groundbreaking. Average/ poor facilities. Library rarely has adequate copies of books you need. It seems to be one of those 'local' unis, i.e. the locals go there because it's their nearest uni, they often just wanna get their degree and move on with life, so are largely unenthusiastic - sadly leads to a mediocre learning experience for all. The uni isn't particularly renowned for it's research or anything. They cram as many students onto each course as possible, therefore lecture halls are full to the brim & v. uncomfortable. The eatery's at lunch time are packed with people and you sometimes can't find anywhere to sit. read more

Nice and tidy campus with different food and drink options. Good quality of teaching and placements arrangements are made for you and staff are really accommodating. The uni bus (U1/U2) are good services that are free with a student ID. They can be a bit busy in the morning and afternoons after lectures end but run regularly. read more

Good overall experience, have had ups and downs but would definitely recommend this university! I will miss being a student, mainly because I love learning and will not get to see the amazing friends I have made as much when I graduate. My advice is to ensure you have a good work life balance, and to get involved with as many experiences and opportunities as you can! read more

I am a postgraduate student and feel so well supported at the University of Derby. I am loving my course - I have just completed my first semester and feel that I have already learned so much. The content is comprehensive, it is taught interactively and clearly, and each member of the faculty is so warm and passionate that any nerves I had were quickly eased. I am really excited for what future semesters bring, and really believe that the university will help me every single step of the way. I would highly recommend the University of Derby from my experience! read more

I have only studied at Derby since September this year but really enjoying the course so far, I'm studying a degree apprenticeship while still in work and get 1 day release for university, so I don't spend loads of time there and have to commute once a week. My only complaint would be the traffic on the A38 to get there. read more

They need to work better on how they interact with International students especially for the admissions team as well as the student journey overall. There is a lack of care and understanding at times with Internationals with alot of people in admissions not know how to handle their issues. read more

I study Journalism at the Marketon Campus (at Derby Uni) and find that it is such an immersive and engaging course- we really are being trained how to be relevant and current journalists, with the evolving skills that come with that. From learning about the utilisation of social media to going in the radio studios, I really do feel completely immersed in my course, especially as we largely learn by doing. Although this campus is fully kitted out to suit the courses it houses, sometimes it does feel like a bit of an afterthought compared to the main Kedleston campus, as that's where a lot of the union/ activities are based- so we do sometimes feel out of the loop a bit. read more
