Location: Derby, England

Size: 14,000 students

Semester Dates:
Fall Semester: Mid-September through late December
Spring Semester: Mid-January through late May

Description:
University of Derby offers the vibrancy of city life while maintaining a community feel. Located in the “stone city,” an exciting mix of Victorian and modern environs, Derby has more parks and green spaces than any other city in the UK. It is located near the beautiful Peak District, Nottingham (think Robin Hood), and has good rail connections to London and Scotland.

Accommodation Type: Residence Hall

Language of Instruction: English

Special Considerations:
This is a “great value” program, meaning students pay nearly the same tuition, room, and board as a semester at KSC.
