Throughout my studies, I received an incredible amount of support from both the department and university. Whether it was a listening ear on some important choices I needed to make, or wisdom on academic matters, there was someone around to help. The facilities were great too – they created a prime learning environment for group lectures, seminars and individual study.
When I was a student, I aspired to a successful career in the music industry as a Hip-Hop artist. This degree contributed towards my goals by expanding my mind academically, as well as giving me access to a host of opportunities outside the classroom that I otherwise may not have been able to experience.
To anyone considering my course I would tell them to expect a lot of theory-focused study – but that’s a good thing! It will expand the way you think, strengthen your critical thinking capabilities and allow you to better understand communication and media.
Attending Loughborough University gave me the opportunity to grow as a person. Comparing who I was when I arrived a few years ago, to who I am now, is testament to the quality student experience here. Campus is a community full of amazing, inspiring and fun people and there’s a whole range of opportunities to help you progress. I was part of the Christian society on campus, known as Radical Youth, and being part of this family has definitely been one of my biggest highlights. It has helped me to grow as a person and face many of life’s challenges with the backing of a strong support system.
