I would recommend Loughborough University because the campus has a strong community feel where diversity is welcomed. The University is accessible as you will find everything you need either on campus or in the local area. It is also very sports orientated and so there are lots of opportunities to have fun, relieve stress and make new friends.
I am really enjoying my course; the quality and enthusiasm of the teaching inspires you to work hard. Every student is given access to the online “Learn” resource that allows you to watch lectures back at a convenient time to assist with your learning. The facilities are state of the art, clean and modern and have equipped me with technical industry skills.
There are also opportunities to acquire relevant industry skills and experience whilst being at Loughborough University. I have been contacted several times by Talent Match, who provide paid short-term internships relating to my course.
I have been offered support with writing my CV which led to being offered industry experience at ‘Cummins Inc’ in Daventry and at the 'Wolfson School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering' at Loughborough University as a Digital Systems Developer. I am proud of securing these in my first year because I appreciate how competitive employment opportunities can be.
I am also looking forward to pursuing a one-year placement as part of my third year studies. I would ultimately like to work at Intel as a Silicon Semiconductor Chip Designer, after possibly pursuing an integrated master’s degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Loughborough University.
