The advice I would give to someone considering studying a Sport Management, Politics and International Development degree at Loughborough is to be pro-active and follow your interests – there is so much to engage in both on the programme and more generally across the University.
Despite challenging circumstances due to COVID-19, I felt throughout the course remarkably engaged, by interactive methodologies online as well as in person and a variety of study facilities. The high responsiveness of staff was outstanding – they were always willing to provide help to further develop your personal skills.
The international community on campus and particularly on my degree programme was by far the most valuable experience to me. Learning about other cultures, different ways to party or celebrate lead to an extremely pleasant and enjoyable time at Loughborough.
Loughborough has also provided me with great support in continuing to play Hockey at a high-performance level. I was part of Loughborough Hockey Women first team and played in the national premier league.
