De Montfort University (DMU)

Founded in 1870, De Montfort University (DMU) Leicester has grown into a global institution with 26,000 students and 2,600 staff.

We are proud to be the only higher education institution in the UK to be a global hub for one of the Sustainable Development Goals – SDG 16 to promote peace, justice and strong institutions.  

We embed the SDGs throughout our curriculum, ensuring sustainable thinking and environmental issues are considered on all our courses.

Our passionate and enthusiastic lecturers have excelled in the National Teaching Fellowship awards – the most prestigious awards for excellence in higher education. 

The university's courses embed employability in their curriculum and the research feeds into students’ learning. Our expertise in cyber security and AI led to the National Cyber Security Centre, part of GCHQ, naming the School of Computer Science and Informatics at DMU as a gold standard Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security Education. 

DMU graduates have gone on to win Oscars and work with organisations such as the BBC, HSBC, Nike, BMW and the NHS. Our careers and employability service, known as DMU Works, was awarded the Best University Careers/Employability Service at the UK National Undergraduate Employability (NUE) Awards in February 2021.

In September 2021 DMU opened its first international branch campus in Dubai, UAE. Students have the opportunity to choose from a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. The DMU programmes have already garnered interest from the student community in the UAE who will benefit from the career opportunities and exposure that DMU offers. The DMU Dubai campus welcomes students from all backgrounds and is proud to offer the perfect combination of award-winning teaching, excellent facilities and a fantastic student experience.
