University of Derby
An introduction to the University of
Derby
The University of Derby* prides itself
on being a friendly place to study, offering students a lot of
support. The University has spent over £75 million on facilities in
the last few years to make sure that they deliver a great student
experience, in particular the excellent facilities available to
those studying Law.
The University's three key aims are to be regionally rooted,
community engaged and employer focused and it prides itself on its
open, inclusive and consultative approach.
Derby survival guide
Derby is a vibrant and cosmopolitan city with a fantastic
heritage, but whilst there's plenty going on, the city's not too
big to be overwhelming.
Students can experience cutting edge culture, shopping and
entertainment and a programme of live events is complemented by a
wide variety of festivals and shows, with world class international
artists rubbing shoulders with multi-talented community groups.
Derby's compact layout makes for great shopping with bustling
markets offering a unique appeal. Museums, a brand new arts and
media centre, world-wide cuisine to suit every palate, a tremendous
pub scene and a hive of lively, cosmopolitan coffee bars and
bistros make Derby a city with something for everyone.
