New students

New undergraduate students

Welcome to the Faculty of Environment, Science and Economy.

You can find induction information and useful links for your department below:

Congratulations on securing your place to study at the University of Exeter Business School! We will do everything we can to make your time with us both successful and enjoyable. 

Your academic induction 

Ahead of your arrival, please complete your online pre-arrival induction which will be available on Learn.Exeter; your welcome email will also include an invitation link. The induction is full of important information and advice about your studies and life as a student here. It also contains activities and forums so you can start to get to know other students even before you start your course. 

Your programme may contain optional modules in the year ahead, and if so you will need to go to Online Module Selection (OMS) to choose them. We encourage you to explore this as early as possible. 

Welcome Week (14th – 18th September) is an important and exciting start to your time at Exeter. You will learn more about your course, and meet key staff and other new students at programme-specific welcome events by the Business School. When you have your IT account, your on-campus induction sessions will appear in My Timetable , but you can also check details below. Your Programme Director may also have arranged additional events so please look for information in emails, your timetable and our pre-arrival induction. 

Buddy-Up Scheme 

You can also register now to be matched up with a current Business School student via our Undergraduate Buddy Up Scheme. This is a great way to get friendly peer-led support through your first few weeks with us.

Welcome to the Department of Mathematics and Statistics – a Message from Professor Mat Collins, Head of Department 

Welcome to the University of Exeter. We are absolutely delighted you have chosen to join us here, and we will do everything we can to make sure your time here is both enjoyable and educational. The subject of mathematics lies right at the core of human endeavour: not only is it an intellectual challenge itself but it also provides the language of the sciences, and increasingly, many of the social sciences. Here in Exeter we aim to provide you the best education you can possibly get in both mathematics and the applications of mathematics, all on a lovely campus in beautiful Devon. We hope you find new friends, have a great time and also work hard to achieve your degree.
