How to find us
Leicester is at the heart of the UK and is served by excellent road, rail and air links.
Leicester is just off the M1 and close to the main A1, allowing easy access to the north and south. The M69 and M6 are also close by and offer access to Birmingham, Wales and the south west. If you are travelling by car and using Sat Nav, please use postcode LE2 7DP, which will direct you to the centre of the campus. Car parks will be clearly signposted from there.
Cyclists are well catered for with a marked network of cycle routes across the city. The bike park in Town Hall Square means you can leave your bike safely and even take a shower or change a tyre!
Bus and train stations are located in the city centre. High speed train links connect Leicester to London and many other large towns and cities, while bus and coach services provide great value and reliable connections across Leicester and to most parts of the UK. Park and ride services are also provided in the city. Visit dmu.ac.uk/publictransport for links to public transport routes, timetables and journey planners.
East Midlands International Airport is less than half an hour away and Birmingham, Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton and Stansted airports are all within easy reach.
