While the course provides brief project proposals, I would recommend listing topics that sparks your interest as a considerable amount of time will be spent on conducting in depth research on your chosen topic.
The greatest achievement I had whilst at Loughborough was completing a summer internship with ExxonMobil. During my time there I gained a valuable insight into the industry, and how a graduate job would potentially be like as an engineer. I also worked as a research intern with the department, which has allowed me to have a deeper understanding of how a PhD may look like in the future. Both experiences have helped me improve my professionalism and communication skills.
In terms of extra-curricular activities, I have joined the Malaysian Singaporean society. As a sport secretary for the society, I learn to take responsibilities and worked together as a team. Playing netball for the society in various events such as the annual South East Asian games and intermural sports for halls accommodation had been one of my highlights here in Loughborough.
