I absolutely agree with Joy Losmasney "After watching the movie on the excavation and discovery of Richard third remains, have never hated a university more. Sure it's just a movie but even if 2% accurate, shows this university to be nothing more than a deplorable bunch of brand hungry capitalists. Boo!" that's exactly how I feel about this people

Hey there! As a current Masters student in Marketing at the University of Leicester, I am thrilled to share my thoughts on this amazing institution. Let me tell you, the University of Leicester is the perfect blend of academic excellence and a lively campus life. The marketing program here is top-notch, providing a comprehensive curriculum that covers both theoretical concepts and practical applications. The faculty members are experts in their respective fields, offering valuable insights and guidance throughout the course. They are always approachable and willing to support students in their academic pursuits. The campus itself is a dream come true, with state-of-the-art facilities that include modern classrooms, a well-stocked library, and dedicated study spaces. But that's not all! There are also numerous extracurricular activities and societies that enhance the overall student experience and promote a sense of community. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my decision to study at the University of Leicester. It's an exceptional institution that truly cares about its students and provides them with all the tools they need to succeed.

Attending this university has been an incredibly positive experience for me. As an international student, I've felt embraced and supported every step of the way. The atmosphere here is truly inclusive, making it easy to connect with others. The Percy Gee building, in particular, stands out with its vibrant energy and dynamic environment—it's a place where ideas come to life!

Did my degree there in the early 90s The campus is very close to the city centre and amenities. There's a lot of new accommodation for the students nearby.
