Why study Psychology?
Lecturers are very friendly and always willing to help, which means there is always someone you can consult and learn from. I have also really appreciated the chance to choose some modules outside of Psychology. I think that my biggest highlight so far would have to be the hands-on experience in practical classes.
One in particular that stands out was looking at MRI scans and identifying areas of the brain, which was both fascinating and rewarding.
One of the main reasons I chose the University of Exeter was the course. Not only is it an undergraduate master’s degree, but it also incorporates work placements and allows me to get professional accreditation as a Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner.

My favourite module is Personality and Individual Differences. It’s an early lecture but I would never miss it because I always leave feeling happy. The depth that we go into and the discussions I’ve had with some of my lecturers have been so fascinating.
The lectures in second year are my favourite so far because we’ve started to focus more, rather than the introduction to Psychology in first year.
The Psychology group is incredibly close. I remember a point where I’d been struggling with statistics and a whole group pitched in to help. On results day I got the mark I wanted and had messages coming in from fellow students. That support made me fall in love with Exeter.
