About De Montfort University

Overview

De Montfort University (DMU) is committed to giving its students an education that will propel them into successful careers, while equipping them with vital life skills.

DMU’s supportive atmosphere and state-of-the-art facilities contribute to our reputation as a university of quality and distinctiveness. Outstanding teaching is supported by life-changing research, dynamic international partnerships and vibrant links with business and industry. DMU students are highly employable thanks to a focus on the needs of business and the professions, which ensures that graduates have the skills required by modern employers.

DMU has a proud history stretching back to the 1870s and the foundation of Leicester School of Art on this very site. A long tradition of excellent teaching, learning and research was originally founded on the technical and trade education of the late 19th century.

With more than 23,000 students, DMU's bustling campus in Leicester is right in the heart of the country. The campus combines modern architecture with scenic squares and historic buildings. The Campus Centre is the hub of DMU life, and includes De Montfort Students' Union, along with a bar, nightclub, food court, shops and much more.

Leicester is a modern and vibrant city, friendly and welcoming, creative and cultural. It is large enough to have the social life and activities you'd expect in a big city, but isn’t so sprawling that you will feel lost. Recent investment has given the city centre a facelift with a fantastic new theatre, shopping centre and much more.
