At Loughborough University London, providing our students with the opportunity to gain real world experience while collaborating with external partners on current and real-world challenges is of primary importance.
We are continuously thinking of new and exciting ways to connect our talented student cohort to the challenges that exist in business, the community and wider society. This is why we are once again looking for Collaborative Dissertation organisation partners to participate in the module this academic year.
