Open Days

Your Open Day, your way

There's lots for you to discover at an Open Day, all at your own pace and in your own way. You can organise your day however you choose; here's an idea of what you can expect:

• Welcome talks, from our main stage at Kedleston Road. Talks are scheduled for 15 minutes after your arrival time
• Explore our campus - make time to explore Kedleston Road, discover our amazing library, and state-of-the-art Sports Centre; drop in to our subject taster sessions, where you can talk to teaching staff about your course; and explore the facilities you'll be using as a student 
• Join our students on a guided campus tour, and find out first-hand what it’s like to study at Derby
• Take a tour of our award-winning accommodation. We are proud to have been recognised by our students as winner of Best University Housing (UK & Ireland) and Best Moving In Experience (UK & Ireland) in the Global Student Living Index awards 2022
• Chat to our support services to ask any questions you have about applying, funding, and wellbeing
• Looking to study Nursing? You can also attend a Chesterfield Open Day.

If you've already applied to the University, you can join one of our upcoming Applicant Days, which offer a tailored experience and the opportunity to explore your subject in more depth.
