Our facilities are set within the refurbished Schofield and Wavy Top buildings at the heart of campus, and include the Schofield Cognition Lab, a child-friendly laboratory for conducting experimental or observational studies with young children, and several eye-movement labs equipped with state-of-the-art equipment.
In 2019 the Mathematics Education Centre was awarded £6.6m by Research England to create a new Centre for Mathematical Cognition; as a result Loughborough now hosts one of the largest groups of mathematical cognition researchers in the world.
We are a diverse community of around 30 staff, comprising academic staff, project staff and visiting fellows, and have a vibrant group of postgraduate research students.
The School of Science is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive working, learning, social and living environment that enables students to achieve their potential and which celebrates and encourages diversity. Our aim is to maximise opportunity for all.
