Loughborough University is proud of its long history as an institution of further and higher education. Thanks to the vision of its founding father, Dr Herbert Schofield, it has been able to grow and develop into one of the country’s top universities. Throughout its history Loughborough University has built upon its distinctive characteristics. Today it is one of the country’s leading unive...rsities, with a reputation for excellence in teaching and research, strong links with business and industry and unrivalled sporting achievement.
That Loughborough now boasts an internationally known and respected university is largely due to the entrepreneurial vision and determination of Dr Herbert Schofield, Principal of Loughborough College for 35 years.  In 1909 a small Technical Institute in the centre of Loughborough was established, which provided local facilities for further education and offered courses in technical subjects, science and art. Land was also acquired on the Burleigh Estate, enabling the early development of the University as it stands today.
In April 1966 Loughborough was awarded its Charter, in recognition of the excellence achieved by Loughborough College of Advanced Technology and its predecessor colleges. Then called Loughborough University of Technology, it was the country’s first technological university. It was renamed Loughborough University in 1996.
Other developments have included the reunification in 1977 with Loughborough College of Education and with Loughborough College of Art and Design in 1998. Land acquisitions in 2003, 2006 and 2010 have contributed towards turning the site into the glorious 440-acre asset it is today.  In 2015 Loughborough opened a second campus on Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London. Loughborough University London has diversified and expanded the high quality education offered to both postgraduate students and those looking to advance their professional development.
Our teaching and learning offers academic excellence in a broad range of disciplines, from sport and exercise science to engineering, business and the arts, and was recently awarded Gold in the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF). Our renowned student experience gives every student the opportunity they need to achieve their full potential. Our strong connections to industry boost these opportunities by providing students with access to placements. They also form the backbone of our enterprising outlook which is helping business to innovate, expand and improve performance.
Our approach to creating an exceptional student experience and delivering the highest level of teaching and learning is quite simple; we put our students at the heart of everything we do. The positive impact of this approach was highlighted in the National Student Survey 2017 results, when Loughborough was ranked the top mainstream university in England for overall satisfaction.
Our outstanding research is generating globally important work that is driven by society’s need for solutions to real-life issues, making it not only cutting-edge, but relevant too. Our reputation for sporting excellence, which spans performance, facilities, expertise and working partnerships, confirms our position as the number one university for sport.  Our superb 440 acre single-site campus is the University’s most glorious asset, offering great facilities for students, staff and visitors to the University. Our Students" Union is one of the very best in the country and is one of the only unions to be owned and managed by students. The elements above, combined with our focus and a strong sense of community spirit, has created something that is truly special and distinctive amongst UK universities.
