What I enjoy most about Natural Sciences is the variety that the degree offers. During my first and second years, in modules such as science communication, we were tasked with completing posters and PowerPoint presentations on topics both within and outside of our discipline area. My pathways are biosciences and chemistry, so topics like genetic engineering proved familiar, while subject areas such as asteroid destruction in defence of earth proved challenging. The flexibility of the research project has allowed me to roughly choose a research are that interests me. This is something most other courses, within Loughborough and in other universities, do not offer.
