I joined the lifesaving sports team in my first and second years where I had a lot of fun and competed in some competitions. In second year, I also joined the trampolining sport and hiking society. There is something for everyone at Loughborough when it comes to sports and societies!

I have loved my time at Loughborough and know I will miss it when I graduate. Since I started, I have grown in confidence and know that there are so many opportunities available to me. Loughborough has inspired me to step outside my comfort zone and find something that will be exciting and challenging for me.

Getting through the first few months, which I found the hardest because I hadn’t taken Physics at A level, was my biggest achievement. I even considered dropping out but kept working and ended up getting a First. Now I am about to be in my final year. My year abroad is another achievement for me, working in Taiwan and going out there alone for 3 months which was I was terrified about at first but it ended up being incredibly rewarding.

If you love science and maths and want to work to solve real world problems, then this is the degree for you. You will gain a lot of skills along the way and have lots of opportunities to work in industries like energy, pharmaceuticals, food, and water.
