I chose Loughborough because I loved the family feel and how relaxed it felt when I first visited the campus. Now that I’ve been a Loughborough student for a while, I can honestly say that I have been supported in every area of my university life. I’m very fortunate to have been accepted into Loughborough and I can’t imagine myself studying anywhere else. I feel like I have found another family.
Architectural Engineering at Loughborough combines my passion for creativity, and yet challenges me academically by teaching me the technical side of building construction. I am learning about things I didn’t expect to be included in building design, like catchment areas in our hydrology lectures. Every lecture is interesting and the modules we study cover a large base of topics. The course covers so many disciplines, which will give me a very wide base of knowledge for when I graduate.
The quality of teaching on the course is excellent. The lecturers are all incredibly passionate and knowledgeable, which makes learning from them really exciting and inspiring. The lecturers are always available to answer any questions you have, making you feel like there is a support system available to you.
I am thoroughly enjoying the Design Skills module where we develop our sketching, designing and technical drawing skills. We focus on a new skill every week, and it is teaching me so much. The lectures always fly by and our lecturer is so good at giving us constant feedback as we work.
