"I love living in Exeter, there are so many gorgeous green spaces and we are so close to the beach, so the summer term is perfect! It’s so easy to travel down to Exmouth or Dawlish on the train and soak up the sun. Not only do I now have practical skills, but I also have so much experience to put on my CV that will help me find jobs in the competitive performing arts industry post-graduation. The careers support at Exeter is amazing, I’ve found out about the next steps I can take to pursue jobs in the industry and feel completely supported as I get ready to graduate."

"Exeter feels like a close and small family to me. I’ve met people from diverse backgrounds with unique stories and perspectives, which has helped me to expand my mindset about a lot of things and overall enriched my university experience. This lively environment has made my time here enjoyable and memorable, and I am sure that these are the days I am going to cherish in my life going forward."
Namit studying MSc financial Analysis and Fund Management at our Streatham Campus.
"I have no doubt that this course is the best step I could take towards my professional development. The extracurricular events such as weekly guest seminars and frequent career services such as fairs create an environment which encourages networking and shows that countless job, placement and PhD opportunities exist. Conservation is essential all over the world which is why I love the international approach taken by my course, whether it be learning about the work of the academic staff or going on field courses. I have had the chance to spend two weeks travelling across Kenya to learn about the challenges of human-wildlife interactions and conservation initiatives in unique tropical ecosystems."
Hugo studying MSc Conservation and Biodiversity at our Penryn Campus.
"My course, BSc Marketing and Management, shares a lot of modules in its first year with students doing other Business School courses, which has been great for meeting loads of different people from all walks of life. As part of the ‘With Industrial Experience’ programme, I am looking forward to spending the third year of my course gaining first-hand insight and knowledge of the business sector, which will really help my employability after my degree is completed. "
Dominique studying BSc Marketing and Management at our Streatham Campus.
"I live locally, so choosing Exeter was actually a pretty easy decision for me. It meant I could stay close to home, but also study a really niche course – I’m doing Sport and Exercise Medical Sciences, which only two other unis provide. Plus, the cricket programme here is top tier, which was a massive part of why I chose it too."
Lucy studying BSc Sports and Exercise Medical sciences at our St Luke's Campus.
"For me, the programme's emphasis on hands-on learning in data approaches and modelling tools stood out. It went beyond theory by incorporating real-world data science problems into modules, resulting in a practical and analytical approach that considerably prepared us for the challenges of our future employment."
