Founded in 1870 as the Leicester School of Art, the institution has gone by several names throughout the years, including Leicester Colleges of Art and Technology and Leicester Polytechnic. On June 26, 1992, Leicester Polytechnic became De Montfort University. The name was chosen to honour the university's long relationship with Leicester by honouring the illustrious Simon de Montfort, Earl of Leicester, a key figure in mediaeval history who founded the first parliament in 1265. The university is affiliated with the Association of Commonwealth Universities, EUA, and Universities UK.

The Campus Centre, which serves a variety of tasks and provides a wide range of services, was finished in September 2003. The three-story structure was designed by Ellis Williams Architects, who also designed the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art in Gateshead. It cost £8.5 million to build on the site of the former Stibbe building and is an important part of the university's 'Masterplan,' which aims to revitalise the Leicester campus environment.
