Overview

De Montfort Students' Union (DSU) is an independent, student-run, and student-led organization dedicated to enriching the student experience at De Montfort University (DMU). Our core values of quality, community, democracy, growth, and fun define everything DSU stands for and believes in. At DSU, we strive to involve, represent, and inspire our members, ensuring they make the most of their time at DMU. We understand that university life extends beyond academics, encompassing personal growth, connections, and unforgettable memories. Thus, we provide a supportive and inclusive environment that empowers students throughout their DMU journey. Our members are central to our mission, and we uphold a commitment to quality in all aspects of our operations. From services to events, we constantly seek feedback, valuing the needs and aspirations of our diverse student body. By giving students a voice and actively representing them, we foster a sense of ownership and ensure their interests are at the forefront. Democracy is fundamental to DSU. We offer students platforms to express their opinions, elect representatives, and shape their university experience. Through democratic structures and processes, students have a direct impact on decisions, driving accountability and enhancing their engagement. Personal and academic growth are paramount at DSU. We provide various opportunities such as volunteering, societies, skills development, and leadership roles. These programs aim to unlock potential, cultivate passions, and prepare students for a successful future beyond university. We are committed to nurturing well-rounded individuals who are equipped to thrive in their chosen fields. While our focus is on achieving goals, we firmly believe in the power of fun and enjoyment. DSU organizes a vibrant calendar of social and recreational activities, ranging from parties and cultural events to sports tournaments and creative showcases.
