What's it like to live in East Midlands?
Check out our region guide

The East Midlands comprises five counties, with its main cities being Derby, Leicester, Lincoln and Nottingham.

The region has plenty of history, boasting both the world’s first factory and its first pub (allegedly). It also has many castles, cathedrals and stately homes, including Chatsworth House, which has served as the backdrop to period films like Jane Eyre and Pride and Prejudice.

And, of course, you’ll find the gorgeous Peak District here. If you end up studying in the East Midlands, definitely make a trip to explore its rolling green hills, peatlands, and quaint market towns – like Buxton, the caverns of Castleton, and Bakewell (home of the famous tart).

Campus and facilities

NTU has got campuses across Nottinghamshire, each uniquely developed to the needs of their student community. From our vibrant City Campus in the bustling heart of Nottingham to the idyllic countryside estate of Brackenhurst, we have a number of University sites across Nottingham and the surrounding areas. 

Each of the stunning campuses at NTU — City, Clifton, Brackenhurst, Confetti, and our Mansfield site — are unique in their own way according to the subjects they teach. There’s the central City Campus in the bustling heart of Nottingham, the idyllic countryside estate of Brackenhurst, and the dedicated student village at the Clifton Campus. Not to mention Confetti in the city’s creative quarter and NTU in Mansfield.  

If you're starting at NTU in September 2024 and want to explore your future campus, book a campus tour on selected Fridays in June and July to check out the buildings and spaces you'll be using.
