Loughborough University and the Aeronautical Engineering course gave me the foundation for how to deal with engineering problems and provided me with highly technical knowledge.
The course is intense and the engineering students must deal with managing problems while trying to enjoy the best years of their lives (by doing sports, going out or doing whatever they like during their spare time).
It provided me with the education that I could have only dreamed of as a kid.
The highlights of my time outside my course would be meeting lovely people and doing sports with them! The University and campus life provides everyone with lots of opportunities to meet people – there are societies, sports, social events from your department, student halls and much more.
Being part of any organisation like Loughborough, getting better at your hobbies and finding people with similar interests, is what Loughborough life is all about.
The advice I would give to someone considering studying this course would be to do it!
It is challenging and hard work goes hand in hand with discipline, but it is so worth it. The world would not be able to function without engineers around, especially good ones.
I have friends (including myself) working at Rolls-Royce, Aston Martin, Red Bull Racing, ExxonMobil, BP, Shell, Mercedes-AMG, BAE, Airbus and more. There are Loughborough representatives everywhere.
I can assure you that Loughborough University will provide you with the education you need to be able to work later on in the biggest companies in the world.
