I completed a placement year working for Wates Construction, which was a fantastic experience, allowing me to gain a better understanding of the industry I hope to work in and develop my skills further before the final year.

I have really appreciated the industry-standard software that we get to use as part of the course. It has been a real support in transitioning to a workplace environment, preparing us for the industry after graduation.

Architectural Engineering at Loughborough offers a fantastic opportunity to grow an extensive skill set in engineering and construction. Learning about teamwork alongside technical knowledge, such as using software, reading plans and programming, are all essential for a successful future career. The course gives a great overview of the industry, making you well-positioned for a management role. Also, the University’s links with industry are fantastic for graduate jobs!
