De Montfort University works to deliver an unrivalled student experience, making ourselves a workplace community that people want to be a part of, carrying out world-leading research activities, and contributing to the development of an informed, fair and sustainable society.

Our new undergraduate block delivery model called Education 2030, and extensive portfolio review, have created a distinctive offer for our students, which manages the transition to university, creates strong learning communities and helps manage assessment schedules. A new postgraduate portfolio has also been created in block mode for delivery in October 2023.

Faculty / Directorate

Located at the heart of De Montfort University’s beautiful city centre campus, our faculty is based in the specially-purposed Hugh Aston Building - with its new extension for executive education called The Yard - and the historic Leicester Castle. Our facilities accommodate a range of learning approaches, from lectures and seminars to interactive learning and a variety of spaces for group work and self-study.

The faculty comprises two leading professional schools: Leicester Castle Business School (LCBS) and Leicester De Montfort Law School (LDLS). This year, the faculty has been restructured to create two large schools within the LCBS: the School of Accounting, Finance and Economics and the School of Leadership, Management and Marketing. The faculty is strongly focused on three areas of activity - excellent learning and teaching; impactful research; and enterprise development, with cross-cutting themes of sustainability, internationalisation and public good.

We are a faculty with a very international outlook, and a commitment to educating and supporting talent from diverse backgrounds from the local, regional, national and international communities.
