Our academic and research staff are nationally and internationally recognised as experts in their chosen fields, but are also noted for the excellent pastoral care they provide to students through our personal tutoring system.
If you choose to study our Medicinal Chemistry degree you will experience the facilities housed in our recently opened STEMLab, as well enjoying access to additional refurbished lab space in our Sir David Davies building. Plus, as a Loughborough University student you benefit from our peer mentoring scheme, supporting your transition into university life.
Lecturers from industry contribute to the teaching of our undergraduate courses and sponsor research projects, while the option of a placement year can provide a real boost to your employability. At Loughborough you'll be getting "hands on" in the lab while also growing the transferable skills looked for by employers.
Throughout your course you will be taught by academic staff who are engaged in wide-ranging research with real-world impact in such areas as health and medicine, crime and security, sustainability, and clean energy. Studying chemistry at Loughborough, you will become part of a friendly, supportive, and international community of scientists devoted to tackling today's global challenges.
Loughborough for me was one amazing rollercoaster ride. What I cherished the most about it, was the culture that Loughborough still has: to never give up, to keep practising and constantly improve.
