What facilities DMU has for Postgraduate Students?
Hi there,
As a student ambassador at De Montfort University, I'm excited to share with you the exceptional facilities available for our postgraduate students. Our university takes pride in providing state-of-the-art resources and support services to enhance your academic journey.
At the heart of our academic resources is the impressive Kimberlin Library, which operates 24/7 to accommodate the flexible schedules of our postgraduate researchers and students. The library features dedicated individual study rooms, providing a quiet and focused environment essential for advanced academic work. You'll have access to an extensive collection of resources, including thousands of print publications, e-books, e-journals, and specialized research databases that you can access both on-campus and remotely.
Our learning zones within the library are thoughtfully designed to support both collaborative and individual work. The facility is equipped with modern technology, including freely available PCs and Macs, plasma screens, and a convenient laptop loan scheme which allows you to take laptops from library for up to 3 hours. For those requiring additional support, we offer comprehensive digital skills training and provide access to assistive technologies, ensuring an inclusive learning environment for all students.
Career development is another area where DMU truly excels. Our award-winning Careers Team, recently recognized as the best in the country at the targetjobs National Graduate Recruitment Awards 2024, provides specialized support for postgraduate students. The Careers Hub, located in the Hugh Aston Building, offers expert guidance on professional development, including CV reviews, interview preparation, and access to innovative tools like virtual reality interview practice through VR sets.
When it comes to accommodation, we understand that postgraduate students often have different needs from undergraduates. Our university offers various housing options within walking distance of the campus and Leicester city centre. From the newly refurbished New Wharf Hall to the centrally located Newarke Point with its premium studios, you'll find accommodation to suit your preferences and budget.
What makes DMU particularly special is our commitment to lifelong career support. As a postgraduate student, you'll have access to networking events, recruitment fairs, and industry experience opportunities. Our digital resources include the Careers Team Skills Hub, where you can receive instant CV feedback and access LinkedIn Learning courses to enhance your professional skills.
The university also demonstrates its commitment to diversity through initiatives like the Lead and Inspire Program, which offers specialized support for Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic students. For those with entrepreneurial aspirations, our track record of being in the Top 10 British universities supporting student and graduate start-ups for three consecutive years speaks to the quality of support you'll receive.
Whether you're conducting research in our 24/7 library, developing your career prospects through our award-winning services, or residing in our comfortable accommodation, DMU is equipped to support your postgraduate journey every step of the way. Our facilities and services are designed to help you achieve your academic and professional goals while ensuring a comfortable and productive study environment.
