Loughborough University Courses

Many students decide to take on the challenge of a masterโ€™s degree to get a step ahead in their careers, but itโ€™s about so much more than that. Studying for a masterโ€™s degree offers you the opportunity to study a subject you love to an advanced level, develop your personal and professional skills, and join an inspiring community of postgraduates โ€“ building friendships, networks and memories that will last a lifetime.

We enjoy a reputation for academic excellence, teaching quality, state-of- the-art facilities and leading research. You will benefit from our unique connections with the sport and leisure industry, coaching and development, sport and exercise medicine, and health and well-being.

Your course will be enhanced by internationally renowned academics, guest speakers and exciting placement opportunities. Consistently highly ranked in university league tables, we offer you the chance to tailor your studies through wide-ranging optional modules that reflect the multidisciplinary breadth of our teaching staff. And all based at the UKโ€™s top university for sport.

All applications for entry to undergraduate programmes at Loughborough University must be made online through the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS). This applies to all UK and international students.

The UCAS system is described in the University’s Undergraduate Prospectus.

If you are in any doubt about whether to do a placement year you should register for the four year course because this makes dealing with your local education authority (LEA) much simpler as it is easier to transfer from a four year course to a three year course than vice versa.

Loughborough University Fees

We invest in excess of ยฃ1million each year in scholarships and bursaries for international students for both undergraduate and postgraduate students.

In addition to your course fees and your cost for your accommodation, there may be extra costs for certain courses. This includes the cost for personal safety equipment (for laboratory work), field trips, art and design materials for assignments, sports kit. It may also be necessary for you to complete a pre-sessional English course at an additional cost if you donโ€™t meet the minimum English language requirements for your course. You will also need to budget for living expenses. This includes food, entertainment, personal belonging insurance, clothing and so on.

Tuition fees cover the cost of your registration, supervision, assessment and operating University facilities such as the library, IT equipment and other support services.

Additional course costs

There are a number of extra costs inherent in studying on certain courses.

Students on courses with significant laboratory content are likely to need to purchase a laboratory coat (approximately ยฃ30), safety shoes (approximately ยฃ40) and pay a locker deposit (around ยฃ45). Thesis requirements may increase normal spending on printing and photocopying. Also some additional travel costs may be involved. You may wish to purchase or upgrade your own computer hardware or software, though this is not compulsory. Where necessary, departments offer access to IT facilities.

As well as these general extra costs, some course-specific costs may also arise. These will be dependent on the area of research and can be discussed with supervisors.

Postgraduate tuition fees

Our tuition fees cover the cost of registration, teaching and assessments, as well as access to a range of university facilities including the library, IT equipment and other support services.

Our tuition fees do not cover general study costs for books, stationery and personal IT equipment. Additional costs may apply for some programmes, such as the cost of lab safety equipment, field trips and craft materials. To find out if your programme is likely to incur additional costs, please contact the school or department directly.

Masterโ€™s degree tuition fees

Current tuition fees for taught programmes vary for each programme. They are reviewed annually and are likely to increase to take into account inflationary pressures.
