Know-How: skills to succeed
Studying at University for a degree is different to studying for A levels. You are far more responsible for managing your own time and meeting deadlines, as well as finding, synthesising and communicating information back to others.
The following Know-How courses and online resources are designed to help you further enhance your study and information literacy skills, such as working in groups, presentations and writing skills. We hope that you find studying at Loughborough both rewarding and enjoyable, and go on to succeed in life.
