  Location
Based in the heart of the UK and the tenth largest city in Great Britain, Leicester is just over an hour from London via a direct train. A nationwide example of the benefits of multiculturalism and tolerance, the city is the perfect location for international students looking to experience UK at its most vibrant. The city centre is also just a five-minute walk away from the main campus, with high street stores, designer boutiques, cinema, restaurants and a cultural quarter all in close proximity.

DMU also has an open campus that merges with the city of Leicester through a combination of historical city and university buildings, modern and new complexes as well as beautiful parks and public roads. De Montfort continually invest in first class equipment and workspaces and over the next few years the university are continuing their investment in the campus to provide a modern and inspiring environment. A £90 million transformation of our city centre site will see improved teaching rooms, eating areas and the Students’ Union, and create a beautiful area of parkland at the very heart of the campus.

The centre-piece is an impressive new base for the Faculty of Art, Design and Humanities – with sector-leading teaching facilities that will help DMU to be one of the foremost providers of creative higher education in the UK. An £8.5 million leisure centre designed by the architects behind the London 2012 Olympic aquatic centre opened last year. Be one of the first to benefit from a 25-metre swimming pool, a fully equipped gym, fitness studios and a climbing wall.   Find on Map
