Undergraduate Study

Exeter offers more... support, flexibility, contemporary programmes and employability

Living in beautiful Devon, enjoying a buzzing campus community and fantastic nightlife is just the start. Studying engineering, computing and mathematics here at Exeter gives you even more…

  • Support - we encourage a supportive student/staff community and a friendly environment in which to study
  • Flexible & contemporary - we provide flexible programmes; reflecting a contemporary view of the subjects
  • Employability – we are committed to employability for every student.

And we deliver our subjects with a distinct Exeter flavour…

  • Offering more than engineering in a stunning West Country setting, all of our specialist programmes are fully accredited by professional bodies, with an interdisciplinary flair, moulding you into more than a specialised engineer.
  • Offering more than mathematics based in a thriving student city, Exeter’s department delves further than most into mathematics to understand contemporary issues, such as climate change; keeping your finger on the pulse of modern mathematical results.
  • Offering more than computer science set on a striking campus with outstanding facilities, our computer science is driven by cutting-edge research producing real changes in the world and encouraging you to begin your career before you’ve graduated through industrial work placements with companies such as IBM.

We’re shaping the future with our unique graduates equipped to explore and make new discoveries… Meet the students:



"The staff here are very active in their research and publish frequently. Their fingers are on the pulse with the latest discoveries. This drives the way you’re taught and keeps you interested in your subject. There’s also a really fast uptake of Exeter Computing graduates. I was employed before I’d even graduated."

"At Exeter you have the freedom to choose the direction of your degree. You can pick and mix your modules, concentrating on what you’re best at and enjoy most. I found this encouraging as I wanted to be able to try lots of different areas and this helped me realise that applied maths was really my thing. Then in my 4th year I chose a project on tidal theory which was fascinating. And this freedom paid off – I got a first, so I definitely made the right choices."

"X-AT is unique to Exeter. We’ve got a lot of different kit here, and the materials lab is excellent…with different machines for analysing different parameters which is quite unusual. As a student here you’ve got everything you need at your fingertips to explore and experiment; the facilities are brilliant"
