Student Profiles

Felipe

I chose Loughborough for my master's degree in Construction Project Management because it offered good industry engagement and outstanding rankings, being ranked 1st in the UK for Building according to The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2021.

I have really enjoyed the holistic and human approach by the academic and professional service staff, showing supportiveness and commitment towards the full development of their students. The lecturers on this programme are highly proficient in their respective fields, and they are dedicated to incorporating the latest research to their teaching.

Loughborough is also a brilliant place to live in. The facilities are remarkable, with multiple study areas, a fantastic library, shops, sports facilities, and other social areas, such as the Students' Union. The location is very well connected to the rest of the country, including various airports. The University has been very supportive not only academically, but also socially, physically and mentally, always dedicated to providing the best student experience.

The teaching on the programme has been extraordinary, giving me the knowledge and confidence to start a personal project, which aims to develop a Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA) modular housing prototype for my home country, Colombia. If this is successful, it will enable solutions to build more affordable housing for mid- and low-income families by adapting Building Information Modelling (BIM) construction practices and techniques to a Latin American context.

Mary

I have had an interest in project management since completing my Mechanical Engineering undergraduate degree and starting my job at a construction consultancy firm in Lagos, Nigeria as a Project Engineer. I wanted to find a master’s programme that enhanced my knowledge of project management in the construction industry more specifically, and to learn more about Building Information Modelling (BIM) due to the increasing need for innovative designs and solutions. Construction Project Management MSc at Loughborough ticked all these boxes while also being ranked as a top 10 university in the UK.
