Loughborough is the fifth most employable uni in the UK

We beat Durham and LSE


Loughborough University students are the fifth most employable in the UK.

The QS Employability Rankings, which came out yesterday, also ranked us 39th in the world.

Oxford and Cambridge came first and second, with Leeds and Edinburgh making up the top five.

Not only did we beat UK unis such as Durham and LSE, but we also ranked above prestigious US institutions such as John Hopkins and Purdue.

Some of the results were unexpected – including Cranfield University coming in front of Exeter in the UK rankings.

The Intelligence Unit said: “This exercise is the result of an extensive research project which has been running since October 2014 and is a pilot initiative, with a methodology subject to changes for the next editions”.

But we believe the Intelligence Unit shouldn’t change their methodology for future editions as it seems to have worked perfectly well in it’s highlighting of how fantastic our institution actually is.
