External Examining

External Examiners are one of the principle means by which we uphold our academic standards. The University regularly reviews its policies and processes for external examining and ensures alignment with the QAA's Quality Code for Higher Education.

The full policy and procedures for the external examining of taught programmes at the University of Exeter can be found in the External Examiner Handbook. This provides information for all external examiners of undergraduate and postgraduate taught and includes guidance on the role and responsibilities of external examiners.
