Lin

I chose to study at Exeter because of the impressive world-rankings, the unique combination of social and organisational psychology, and the beautiful study environment.

I would advise people who want to study at the University of Exeter to look at the website and pay attention to the career prospects section.

I feel really comfortable in Exeter because everyone talks to me and offer helps when I need it. Sometimes I get lost when lecturers speak quickly in class, however they are always willing to explain patiently when I ask. The Advances and Methods in Social and Organisational Psychology module has been my biggest highlight. We have to do readings in seminars, which is quite challenging for me but great!

I really want work in the UK for a couple of years and will then go back to my country. For now, I don’t have a specific career in mind, but the Career Zone have given me lots of advice.
