Open Days and visiting
Discover the University of Exeter
We've put together a suite of virtual and in-person activities to help you find out more about studying with us and the subjects we offer across our campuses in Devon and Cornwall. These events are primarily aimed at students planning on starting university in Autumn 2022, but are also relevant for those of you thinking about studying with us in 2023.
Virtual Open Day
You can watch talks from subject tutors and get some tips on applying at any time on our Virtual Open Day page.
Upcoming undergraduate events
From January 2022 we will be sending all offer-holders information about our Offer-Holder programme of events and activities which will run from February through to the end of May. Information and a link to the booking form will be sent to you via email.
We look forward to inviting you to explore our campuses and facilities, meet academics and current students to learn more about your subject of interest and view accommodation to help you decide if the University of Exeter is the right place for you.
Join us to find out more about the integrated foundation programmes offered by the University of Exeter for students looking to study Maths, Engineering, Natural Sciences or Physics.
We believe that fair access to higher education is a fundamental enabler for social mobility and are committed to delivering this through our education. We aim to widen participation and raise attainment - bridging gaps in retention, progression and success - to ensure our students enjoy the best possible outcome.
The BEng Engineering with Foundation Year has been designed explicitly for this purpose, to support UK students from Widening Participation backgrounds wishing to study Maths, Engineering, Natural Sciences or Physics.
We have recently launched 360 Virtual Campus Tours of our beautiful campuses in Devon and Cornwall that allow you to take a look around the campuses, their grounds and facilities including accommodation, sports centre, library, seminar rooms and lecture theatres.
We are continuing to run student guided Campus tours on all our campuses. Information about the different programmes we offer and where they are taught can be found here.

In addition to an Open Day, why not take part in our Discover University series?
