About University of Exeter
The University of Exeter is a prestigious public research university located in South West England and a member of the UK’s elite Russell Group of 24 leading research-intensive universities. With roots tracing back to the mid-19th century through St Luke’s College (founded 1854) and the Exeter School of Science and Art (1868), it was granted its Royal Charter by Queen Elizabeth II in 1955. Educating more than 30,000 students from over 150 countries, Exeter is globally acclaimed for climate change research, ecology, environmental intelligence, renewable energy, and mining engineering (via the historic Camborne School of Mines, founded 1888). The University operates across three picturesque campuses: the flagship Streatham Campus in Exeter (a registered botanic garden featuring the modern £48M Forum and historic Reed Hall), St Luke's Campus in central Exeter (housing the Medical School and Sports and Health Sciences), and the ecological Penryn Campus in Cornwall (home to the Environment and Sustainability Institute). Exeter holds the prestigious triple accreditation (AACSB, AMBA, EQUIS) for its Business School and is partnered closely with the UK Met Office, cementing its reputation as the UK’s climate and environmental science powerhouse.
