The course so far is great and very hands on with the practicals we do. The teaching quality is okay but could be better- a lot of the time lecturers end up having to rush through the lecture so the content covered isn't actually learned- leaves a lot for us to do by ourselves. My personal tutor has been fantastic and very helpful

It's an interesting subject and the support is good (most modules have drop in/q&a sessions). However, to get into a psychology career you have to get a master's and sometimes even a doctorate which is poor value for money. read more

Being 1st in the world, the value for money is 100% worth it! The teachers are experts in there fields and ensure top quality teaching experiences where they can pass on the latest, up-to-date information. My personal tutor is always there when I need him, with regular check ins and opportunities to see him if I’m struggling. The course covers everything relevant in relation to sport and exercise and after completing my 1st year I feel confident I have the knowledge to take on 2nd year. With the prestige Loughborough comers with, the job prospects are good positions within good establishments. read more
