Loughborough University is a top 10 UK university and is a two-time Times and Sunday Times 'University of the Year'.
Loughborough has one of the largest single-site campuses in the UK and is generally regarded as the best in the country for sports, having been named the Sports University of the Year multiple times by the Times Good University Guide.

Strong connections to industry, both local and international, boost these opportunities.
