Mathematics & statistics, Loughborough University

The department is incredibly supportive and have helped me with my ambitions of further study

Very happy with the lecturers and content on my course; only downside was my personal tutor didn't bother with me after first year, really feel I could have benefitted from that assistance.

My personal tutor is amazing, the course is great and I'm loving all the lectures, so much help on the online system and in person, there's always someone around if you get stuck

Good lectures, helps if you did A Level

Good and challenging course that grows your understanding in maths and the financial sector

The mathematics side is very good and most of the lecturers are very dedicated to what they do. The management side is less so, and takes a lot more hours outside of lectures to keep up.

A nice balance between the two subjects, and a good amount of contact hours.

Being half way through my first year, I am still only doing mathematics modules with other students from mathematics degrees. Currently there are six of us on the maths with education course who meet once a week with our personal tutor who is great.

i can’t really blame the university but everything’s just not that great due to the pandemic , so it’s harder to understand topics

The sports side of the course starts off much easier than the maths side, which is a huge step up from A-level, especially if you havent done further maths.

Great course has lead me into a great job!

My work style is... independent. I don't make the most of what I'm paying for but it doesn't bother me as things work out in the end.

Clad and Artie are the absolute best

The combination of these two subjects is not one that you would initially think of, however having completed part of the degree already, I now see where the link is, a range of topics to suit everyone’s preferences allows you to adapt your degree to what suits you best

Most teachers are great, however there are some who are intentionally difficult about putting up resources online.

My overall experience was okay as they had good lecturers. However, the University saw me as a money-making opportunity. Due to circumstances, I had to commute from Birmingham to uni every day. Only when I got there I hear they were charging hefty fees. So I decided to park outside campus away from the uni. One day when I visited my friend I got a warning from the unis or shall I say frauds that I parked in a no uni parking zone. However, I was visiting a friend to do some group studying. They let me off saying I shouldn't park there. But where else should I park when I visit my friend? Then halfway through the year, another friend said that he lives in a house just outside the campus and said that its a private road where I can park if I liked. So I did this and then the uni made me pay a fine of £50 even though and denied my appeal saying its because I missed a deadline. They didn't consider how busy I was commuting and managing work. They did this after charging me £14k tuition!!

My professional teacher is very versatile, he taught us a lot of knowledge and is very patient. Students help each other and progress together.

This course will give you a lot of insight in your life about actual experience of the corporate world.

With maths there is so much support with the maths learning support centre where you can get one on one help. Weekly tutorials are also very helpful.
