University of Exeter

The University of Exeter delivers a substantial portfolio of Degree Apprenticeships that integrate academic study with paid employment, aimed at developing future‑ready workforces for UK and global organisations. Its Degree Apprenticeships are built on a partnership model, with employers and the University working together to co-design programmes, address skills gaps and align curricula with current and future workforce needs. Exeter offers Level 4, 5 and 6 undergraduate and Level 7 postgraduate Degree Apprenticeships, with options to join established open programmes or develop bespoke pathways tailored to specific organisational requirements. The University emphasises flexibility, allowing employers to upskill existing staff and attract new talent through clear progression routes. Apprentices benefit from exposure to top-tier academic teaching combined with real-world work experience, supporting both personal and professional development. As part of the Russell Group, Exeter highlights a strong track record for delivering Degree Apprenticeships at scale and quality, and positions its provision as a way for organisations to equip employees with applied, work-relevant skills while supporting long-term talent pipelines. Beyond apprenticeships, the University also provides a wide range of undergraduate, postgraduate, teacher training and research degrees, plus executive and innovation-focused support for business through Exeter Innovation and related services on and off campus.
