Default UK: De Montfort University offering qualifying law degrees
De Montfort University offering qualifying law degrees recognised in England, Wales and Northern Ireland

De Montfort University (DMU) is a British university situated in the centre of Leicester, England. The university is made up of one main campus and one outlying campus. The main campus is currently being expanded to incorporate a new Business and Law building which will move all the main buildings towards one centre point. The faculties currently on the campus are: Art and Design (The Fletcher Building), Technology (Gateway House and Queen's Building), Humanities (Clephan Building) and The Institute Of Creative Technologies, with the faculty of Health and Life Sciences being situated on the outlying Charles Friers campus.

The Faculty of Business and Law

The Faculty of Business and Law incorporates the Leicester Business School and the De Montfort Law School. The Business School is one of the top schools in the country according to the results of the 2007 National Student Survey. The School is an accredited provider of professional courses approved by the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), and the Chartered Institute of Personnel & Development (CIPD). Construction of a new £35million building to hold both Schools is underway and is scheduled for completion in 2009. The University also has a long history of international partnerships. In 1997 the business school collaborated to help found a business school in India - Daly College Business School.

  • Professional Legal Studies

Department of Law

The Department of Law offers undergraduate, postgraduate and research degrees through full-time, part-time and distance learning study modes, catering for many different types of students at many stages of their professional careers.

Because we are a big Department, we can offer this range of courses and extensive staff expertise, but everything we do is underpinned by quality, and by a concern for our students as individuals. That is why we interview most applicants, and why each of our courses is relatively small in size, compared with other Law Schools.

  • Research
  • Staff
  • Study a Law Degree Part-Time
  • Client Interviewing
  • Mooting
  • Law Club
  • Pro-Bono Work

Leicester De Montfort Law School is located in the Elfed Thomas building, just a few moments walk from the heart of the city centre and close to the various sets of barristers’ chambers and the major law firms in Leicester. Students benefit from a dedicated Law environment with excellent staff support and facilities such as a mock courtroom and a new integrated Law Library, one of only a few in the UK.
