University of Exeter
The University of Exeter combines world class research with excellent student satisfaction at its campuses in Exeter and Cornwall. It is a member of the Russell Group of leading research-intensive universities.
Formed in 1955, the University has 27,296 students from more than 130 different countries. Its success is built on a strong partnership with its students and a clear focus on high performance.
Recent breakthroughs to come out of Exeter's research include the identification and treatment of new forms of diabetes and the creation of the world's most transparent, lightweight and flexible conductor of electricity. Development of their new £52.5 million Living Systems research centre is now complete. It will focus on disease prevention through predictive biology and will eventually house 200 scientists.
It follows a major refurbishment project, which saw the creation of world-class research and teaching facilities for Biosciences.
