Studying
Our primary focus is to realise the 2030 University of Exeter Strategy to transform human health and wellbeing. In addition we will address the climate emergency and progress social justice to create a fair and inclusive society for everyone.
To achieve a sustainable, healthy and socially just future, our programmes across our six departments and the Medical School are designed with this aim in the forefront of our thinking. We want to develop the science and healthcare practitioners and leaders of the future and by developing our students into critical-thinkers who are socially accountable, we strive to provide service and care to our public nationally and internationally.
