The University of Derby is a great choice for hands-on, career-focused courses. It’s not the most famous uni, but it offers strong industry links and a supportive student experience. Perfect if you want a practical education in a friendly, smaller city. read more

The university is good and overall I would recommend it to a friend, however there have been issues with supporting students with disabilities which have been discussed with the appropriate staff. The clubs, societies and student union are good, however I think more work could be done to promote them and to ensure that people join clubs throughout the year, not just in September read more

University of Derby

The university lecturers are not professional in the way they conduct themselves. They create deadlines for themselves to provide feedback to students on their submissions of work, but fail to meet their own deadlines the majority of the time. In addition to this, the standard of marking varied from lecturer to lecturer so your grades aren't really a good representation of the work you have submitted. To worsen this, the marking for non fulltime students is not anonymous, whereas the fulltime students are supposedly marked anonymously. Students are treated differently depending on their chosen pathways. On a more positive note, the technologies that the university has to offer are above average, however, do not expect the lecturers to know how to use or operate them. read more

I am an apprentice student in the engineering school and if I was to chose a university again, University of Derby would be on my black list. I have learnt nothing useful in the last 4 years other than if you query the integrity of lecturers you'll be met with bad marks from the specific lecturers. No one learns anything and most assignments are done via Chat GPT. If I was an employer, I would never higher someone with University of Derby on their CV. Clubs are not promoted and have to be seeked via emailing lots of people until you stumble on someone who is useful (rare). Even then the clubs aren't very fun since they are under funded and see no backing from the university, namely Formula Student. I think that a job at Morrisons will better prepare you for a future then a degree in the engineering school at Derby University. I am just glad I personally have not paid for the degree but my employer has wasted their money. read more

I attended the chestfield campus and did not use SU, clubs or careers service, I dont even know what was available to us. The facilities were poor, just a small expencive starbucks, a vending machine and one microwave. The library was great until they closed it. I found it difficult to get on the internet so always hotspotted off my phone, luckily I had a lot of data. read more
