The pick-up service from Heathrow Airport provided by the University was really helpful. It allowed me to meet and socialise with several other international students. The international welcome party helped me get familiar with the new environment and made the transition to a new country much easier. The various sports activities and society fairs helped me browse the opportunities available. For example, I was the SIO for Action for the School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering.
The modules on this programme are well-balanced, providing both theoretical understanding and practical applications of the principles learned, with a variety of optional modules available to steer your career path in the desired direction. The programme is taught by renowned professors, academics and industry experts, providing a complete picture of the construction industry. The ReVIEW Lecture Capture has also immensely helped me, especially during the lockdown period, allowing me to catch up on lectures online.
We also had a visit to the Hollowford Centre, which was very memorable. We learnt a lot about putting theory into practice and made beautiful bonds between peers and colleagues.
Apart from having an excellent library, Loughborough's postgraduates are blessed with 'The Graduate Hub'. This postgraduate-only cosy hub was our go-to place for doing coursework and revising for exams.
