The facilities at Loughborough are great – STEMLab has greatly improved on the facilities at the university, allowing you more practical time in labs and tutorials. The staff in the department are always happy to help – particularly the administrative staff and my final year project tutor. The Careers Network have also provided lots of support; I used them multiple times to check my CV and attend mock assessment centres which made finding a placement much less daunting.

Completing the flight test week at Cranfield as part of the course was an exciting opportunity, as I have never flown in such a small aircraft before, and I ended up being sat directly behind the pilots!
