Loughborough's renowned for it's engineering prowess. I'm a 2nd year Civil Engineer (on the 4-year Master's course) and would very much recommend it. Engineering courses, however, are a lot more intensive than most others at Loughborough, in that you'll find that your flatmate doing Sport Science will only have about 3 or 4 pieces of coursework and 3 exams each semester, where you'll be doing about 7 pieces of coursework and 4 or 5 exams. You won't have to do as much self-learning from textbooks as they do however. A whole section of campus is entirely dedicated to Maths, Physics and Engineering as well, with very high-standard facilities (although it looks a bit grey and dingy from the outside) but each department is distinct from the others (ie, each building is dedicated to Civil, Auto/Aero, Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Materials, Maths, Physics). Warwick's an amazing university and is renowned for it's Maths courses, but you won't have the Loughborough experience there, which is something very special indeed. My only regrets are not putting in enough work into my course before exams come around and staying in halls for 2nd year.
