The cost of studying at Loughborough University varies largely depending on the type of university and the degree chosen. More often than not, humanities, arts, and education courses are less expensive than degrees in medical, engineering, or management. Furthermore, students who choose to study at the postgraduate level typically pay higher tuition fees, which again vary depending on the programme chosen. 

Most universities provide scholarships or financial aid to students in order to help them offset their tuition costs. Students should be aware that additional course fees and incidental expenses may not be included in tuition. On average, international students can expect to pay £28,750 annually, to study in Loughborough University.

The biggest employers for Biotechnology graduates is the rapidly expanding biotechnology industry including companies manufacturing diagnostics, healthcare products, pharmaceutical companies producing biomedicines for gene therapy and vaccines, consumer care product manufacturers (such as Unilever and Procter & Gamble), environmental engineering companies and the food sector.
