OPEN DAYS 202201
to welcome you to our wonderful campus for our Open Day today. This event is a great opportunity for you to explore the University and learn more about what life as a Loughborough student is like.
At Loughborough we challenge you to succeed and be the best you can be. We are passionate about delivering high quality teaching which is shaped through our worldleading research and partnerships with industry. We are built on principles of passion, innovation and achievement and this is an exciting new era for the University as we embark on a new strategy driving us forward.
Have a fantastic day.
My colleagues, from both our academic schools and our support services, and many of our fantastic students will be on hand throughout the day so do make the most of the opportunity to speak to them and get your questions answered. Don’t forget to visit our Students’ Union, where you’ll be encouraged to make the most of your free time whilst at university. From taking part in volunteering, fundraising for international charities to starting your own business and experiencing what the entertainment programme has to offer the Students’ Union provides exciting opportunities to experience new things.

We regret that we are not able to store items of guest luggage during the day.
Our campus is big so don’t forget to take walking between buildings into account when planning your day! Below we’ve estimated how long it will take you to get to the main buildings on campus.
Emergencies, first aid and lost property
Getting around
Drop-off points across campus (including to and from car parks)
CAMPUS SHUTTLE
We think the best way to get around our campus is on foot – there’s so much to take in and it enables you to really get a feel for our beautiful green surroundings.
You can also hop on and off the buses as often as you like – they are free to use throughout the day. All the buses have a drop-floor and are accessible for wheelchair users and prams.
TOWN CENTRE AND TRAIN STATION
Make the most of your day
Drop-off points across campus (including to and from car parks) but also take you into town/to the train station
