Loughborough University has a vibrant international community with around 19,000 students from over 130 different countries/regions.
The University’s two distinctive campuses, in the East Midlands and London, offer different takes on the same rich, dynamic and rewarding student experience.
Known for its strong sense of community and peerless sporting heritage, Loughborough’s East Midlands campus is a superb 523-acre single-site campus that offers undergraduate, postgraduate taught and postgraduate research courses. Students can access some of the world’s most impressive academic and recreational facilities in the peaceful setting of a historic market town with convenient transport links to the rest of the UK.
Loughborough University London was established exclusively for postgraduate study and research and is building on the UK capital’s Olympic legacy by providing students with unrivalled access to influential thought leaders, researchers and innovators in one of the UK’s most dynamic creative and business hubs in a phenomenal global city.
Reliably holding an overall top ten position in the top ten major UK rankings, Loughborough is consistently recognised for its outstanding student experience, ranking 6th in the UK in the Complete University Guide 2025. Students benefit from world-class teaching, extensive placement opportunities, and strong industry links that support career development.
The university is also a global leader in sport, ranked #1 in the world for sports-related subjects for nine consecutive years by the QS World University Rankings by Subject (2017–2025), and named Sports University of the Year in the Times and Sunday Times Complete University Guide. It also excels in engineering, business, art and design, and media studies, with top national and international rankings.
The University has been awarded seven Queen’s Anniversary Prizes and 90% of its research output was rated ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally-excellent’ in the UK’s 2021 Research Excellence Framework.
