I chose to study Product Design Engineering as the course specification included mechanical engineering fundamentals with a mixture of design and creative modules. It was also accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) which suited me at the time because becoming a chartered engineer was also on my radar.
The facilities at Loughborough and access to the equipment definitely benefited me during my course as it gave me the opportunity to bring ideas to life and get a more hands on experience with the course, by applying the theory learnt during lectures.
