If you as a student are thinking about pursuing chemical engineering as a degree and future career, I would definitely recommend it. However, it is definitely a challenging and demanding course but at the same time rewarding, with good career prospects should you commit to it. On top of that, I would also readily recommend Loughborough to go do your chemical engineering degree.
The social atmosphere I think is really something special. It is very unlike city-based university campuses, and a large portion of Loughborough’s population is made up of students come term-time! I have many great memories of nights out at the student union, and being part of various clubs such as AU cycling and sub-aqua – I managed to go on various scuba diving trips across Europe to places like Malta and Croatia through being involved so would definitely recommend joining societies and clubs that pique your interest!
The best part of being a Loughborough alumnus is it really stays with you. When I joined NNL I met other alumni from various time periods, and they all have good memories of their studies. Furthermore, I always look forward to returning to Loughborough when I can, with opportunities like careers fairs.
