I chose to study my course at Loughborough University because of reputation. My design teacher at school went to Loughborough University and recommended it extremely highly. It was the only university I wanted to go to!
It was the breadth and depth of the learning and teaching quality which gave a great understanding and appreciation for design. It gave me a solid intro into computer graphics which formed the basis of my initial interest in CGI. With the demanding workload it also taught me the importance of project and workload management, along with self-direction.
