At Loughborough University, the projects I was able to get involved in were based on real-life problems and solutions which I enjoyed. The university has compiled the course by teaching and testing students in situations that they will likely encounter during their career. Whether it's lab-based skills, calculations or simply presentation skills, I can proudly say that I am using them in my day-to-day life and it is often well received by my employers and colleagues.
My research project was about identifying and analysing specific data trends collected over the years in a company's archives. The data collected is used to compare the paper-based system to a recently introduced electronic system and provide the employer with valuable analysis on the efficiency of the electronic quality management system.
