Choosing a university
Why go to university?
Our new Kirtley Building at Kedleston Road
In these difficult economic times, it's more important than ever to do your research when you're deciding whether to go to university. After all, a degree is a big financial and time commitment, so you want to make sure you choose the right course at the right university for you, and that it's really going to benefit you long term.
So what are the benefits of going to university?
The right university for you
Choosing the right university is such an important decision. Not only do you want to be confident that you've chosen a course that's right for you and that will kick start your career, you also want to be sure you're going to a university where you're going to be happy for three or more years of your life.
Open days can really help
If you've decided to go to university but need help deciding which university to choose then you should go to an open day, where you can get a real taste of what the facilities, staff and students are like. Have you booked an open day yet? If not book now.
Facilities
At Derby we have lots of facilities for learning, sports and socialising. We provide lots of facilities ranging from our all-weather sports pitch to our plush and modern Students' Union bar. Our recent development of sports facilities at both Buxton's Harpur Hill and Kedleston Road's Kirtley Building means our University now accommodates state of the art gym and fitness centres, ensuring you'll get the most from your university experience.
