As a university committed to the public good, we have a track record of research that impacts society and makes a real difference to people’s lives through improvements to health and well-being, infrastructure, creativity, economic growth, business and civil society.

At the heart of everything we do is our commitment to inclusivity and diversity, and a focus on career and personal development.

Our ground-breaking DMU Square Mile programme uses DMU’s academic expertise and a network of student volunteers to offer potentially life-changing services in the Leicester community.
