My time at @DerbyUni studying Specialist Sports Journalism and Communications has now come to an end!

What an incredible rollercoaster of an experience which has pushed me on so far from a work perspective and helped me get career ready!

In April, we welcomed prospective @DerbyUni students to Pride Park to provide an expert insight into the football industry. 🧠

The students took part in a special Q&A with players and club staff before receiving a behind-the-scenes tour of our home. 🏟️

What a difference a week makes

After blistering sun on last week’s trip to the Wrekin, this week was blizzards in the Peak District!

Our @DerbyUni students did a fabulous job honing their field skills skills in less than ideal conditions

Well done all!
