Sam Chikowore

BA Business, Zimbabwe

“Derby’s a really good place to study, I’ve had nothing but good experiences here. If you’re looking for a really relaxed, but vibrant university, you should come here. The people of Derby are very friendly – the hospitality of the local people has been great. Derby is really quite a good place to start off, not too big, not too overwhelming.”
