Well the figure I've been told is that well over 90% of engineering graduates from Loughborough have a job in industry within 6 months. It's still pretty high in demand like, and it's still not a large course compared to others. For example, my year for Automotive Engineering, we had barely 70 students on the course. That said, we shared a number of modules with the Aerospace lot, which was another 70 on top of that.

Yeah everyone I know on my course has had jobs lined up for a few months (except the crazies who are doing a PhD)

I have very little blue in my room but I suppose I could hang blue stuff up outside to stop them coming in the house? Even better, blue plants. In my neighbours' gardens.

Download a piece of software called Flux. It changes the colour of your screen depending on the time, makes the screen nicer to read at night by removing the blue colour from it. Think that's how it works anyway.

What's the job market for engineering grads like right now? When I was at uni it was one of the best degrees to get in terms of getting a job afterwards, and one of my mates who did aerospace engineering went straight into a job. But since then it's been a very popular track, so maybe it's now over-subscribed?

In deal with a well known Domestic Appliance company, known for removing bags from cleaners... at their head office, they employee 2000 people, 1000 of which are engineers. They are just about to expand HQ, from 2000 people to 5000 people. Not sure of the % of engineers, but it will be huge. Anyone interested in engineering in that sector get your CV in.
