Welcome

Welcome to the University of Exeter

Exeter is a top 10 UK university which combines world class research with very high levels of student satisfaction.

It is one of the UK’s most popular and successful universities with campuses in Exeter, Devon and near Falmouth in Cornwall. The University also has offices in China and India.

Exeter is ranked 10th out of more than 100 UK universities in the Times league table and 156th in the world in the Times Higher Education international league table. It was the 2007/08 Times Higher Education University of the Year.

The University scores highly for degree completion rates and for students achieving good honours degrees (Firsts or 2:1s). It is consistently ranked amongst the top 10 universities in the UK for student satisfaction in the National Student Survey. Exeter has also been shortlisted for the Sunday Times University of the Year Award more times than any other university and has won three Queen’s Anniversary Prizes for its research.
Students and staff enjoy some of the finest campus environments in the UK. The South West counties of Devon and Cornwall boast an unrivalled mix of city life, countryside and coastline.

Under the leadership of Professor Steve Smith, appointed Vice-Chancellor in 2002, the University has invested heavily in new academic appointments and facilities. At a time when many other universities are cutting back, Exeter is looking to appoint 300 more academic staff and is engaged in a £350m investment programme across its campuses.

The University of Exeter believes that the diversity of its community is an essential part of its values and enriches employment, research, studying and learning experiences.
