The university of Exeter is a wonderful place to study! The facilities are excellent and the amount of spaces to study are second to none especially the library. The teaching staff are incredibly passionate about their subjects and are always happy to help. The only improvement I could think of is the support and opportunities around part-time jobs, I have been struggling for a couple of months to receive any job opportunities to support myself whilst at university.

The teaching staff in Anthropology are amazing, they are obviously very passionate about their subject and it portrays very positively onto the students. Other optional modules such as criminology and sociology discuss some very interesting topics however the teaching staff could make their lectures more inclusive. I’ve also found that lecturers tend to just read off their PowerPoints and struggle to expand the point in question.

It is my own fault for not researching the exact location of Duryard Halls as it is a long uphill walk to campus but again that is my own fault. The student community around this area is wonderful and there has only been a couple of incidents in which the campus security has had to be contacted. Student accommodation in general is expensive especially in the south west but all things considered the facilities are very clean and spacious. As I am in a flat of 6 and not 9 we do not have a toaster and less fridge and bin space but apart from that the accommodation is lovely.

The wellbeing teams are great for listening to you and making sure they can make adjustments to your learning that is right for you. Plenty of spaces both inside and outside to socialise or get work done including cafes for longer gaps between lectures

Lecturers and seminar leaders are easily assessible to ask questions after and during sessions in-person as well as via email for catch ups, general questions and more academic / specific questions

Good value for money with double bed, en suite with shower, good sized kitchen with social space. Access to all necessary amenities e.g laundry, corner shop and postage.
