Welcome to Loughborough

I am delighted 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.

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.

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.
