The Career Zone have produced a guide: Theology Careers Factsheet (.pdf)

Our programmes give you an excellent all-round education, where you'll learn to understand other people's points of view, to communicate your own position clearly and to argue effectively. You'll also learn to collect, assess and present evidence and to work independently and in groups. Our programmes are demanding and encourage initiative and open mindedness, helping to ensure that you'll be well equipped with a range of academic, personal and professional skills, that will prepare you confidently for future employment.

Exeter has an excellent reputation with graduate recruiters and our students and graduates compete very successfully in the employment market. Many employers target the University when recruiting new graduates. Six months after graduation 93% of Exeter's first degree graduates were in employment or further study.*

*(Figures as at Jan. 2010, as a percentage of those respondents available for employment or study)
