I chose to study my course at Loughborough University because of the reputation of the Ergonomics course, which is very good. I thought the course may help kick start a career in Ergonomics and Human Factors, which it did. I was also impressed by the reputation of Loughborough University generally and its standing in the national league tables.

There was a broad choice of projects to choose from and develop, and my supervisor was excellent, and I gained a lot of industry experience from working on my project. We had access to several industry experts who gave clear examples of how theory is applied to practice in the real world. I find this link between academic knowledge and practice is often missing in teaching, but I did not find that during my MSc.
