Activities and Events
If you study with us at Exeter you’ll be invited to attend of a rich programme of events and activities alongside your studies. The Department of English and Film hosts an exciting range of visiting speakers and events across the academic year.
Some recent visitors include the UK’s foremost film critic Mark Kermode, who dropped by campus in December to give a masterclass and Q&A on film journalism for our students.
We are Postgrads
We have a thriving postgraduate community in English at Exeter, with many of our Undergraduate students choosing to stay with us to study further and expand their interest and expertise in English at MA level. You can find out more here.
Take a look at Tara’s video below – her pathway through Exeter English led her from Oscar Wilde to Japanese literature.

We are volunteers
Studying with us will give you many opportunities beyond the classroom to build your skills and experience and add exciting new strands to your CV. Many English students volunteer in our unique film museum, for example, and have gone on to a range of exciting careers in museums and archives. Take a look at the short film below for a glance at some of our student volunteers at the Bill Douglas Cinema Museum, past and present.
