University of Exeter

The university has three campuses: Streatham Campus and St Luke's Campus are in Exeter and the Cornwall Campus is at Penryn near Falmouth.

The University of Exeter Students Guild is instrumental in organising special cultural events and programmes for students, and includes the International Student Society as well as several societies dedicated to specific cultures from around the world. There are over 150 student societies and clubs, which students can join. Societies range from Archaeology, Beats and Bass and the Expedition Society to the Lit Soc, Photosoc, Ski Club and Chocolate Society. Leading music bands hold concerts regularly at the Exeter and Cornwall campuses.

Exeter is also excellent for sports-lovers with facilities offered for the following sports - cricket, golf, hockey, netball, rowing, rugby union, sailing, squash, surfing and tennis. The indoor cricket centre on the Streatham Campus is another highlight, as is the indoor heated pool at St Luke’s Campus.
