Further support and guidance

There is a wide range of academic support available to you at the University in addition to the support offered by Study Zone.

The online tutorial from the Library will help you identify good quality information for your assignments.

The Library Guides (LibGuides) offer guidance on a range of library and research skills, including referencing guidance.

If you require further guidance on finding sources for your subject area, you can book an appointment with a Liaison Librarian.

The English Language Development programme (Insessional) supports students who speak English as a second or other language. Visit the Insessional website to browse events and book 1-1s.

For resources, visit Insessional's Guided Independent Learning site.

Read about the role of your academic tutor, your key academic point of contact at the university. Your tutor is a named academic contact who you can talk to about your academic, personal and professional development.

Prospective students will find out more information as part of their pre-arrival academic induction MOOC.

If you would like to improve your academic writing, you can book a session with the Royal Literary Fund Fellows

Please note the Fellows are not trained to help with dyslexia or any other condition which would need specialist support, and so students may need to seek extra support elsewhere as well. If English is not your first language, you may like to take advantage of the English language support offered by Insessional.

The Doctoral College stimulates, supports and sustains a vibrant research and intellectual environment across and between disciplines for postgraduate research (PGR) students and early career researchers. It provides a range of training and development opportunities, including research essentials, data analysis & management, careers, research sharing, and writing support.

All students with an exeter.ac.uk email address can access Study Zone's online study resources. Students based on Penryn campus can also receive study support from ASK: Academic Skills.

While Study Zone offers support with Digital Skills for study, you can also receive digital support from the Digital Hub.
