Employability
The student view
“I believe having a postgraduate degree (MSc)
from Exeter helped to give me the edge over
other interview candidates, not only because of
the qualification but because of the specialised,
relevant knowledge I acquired through my
studies.”
Employability “Also part of the reason I got the job was the
MSc! Most of the other applicants had really
specific training (dieticians, nutritionists etc) but
the panel felt that I'd had quite a lot of varied
experience in the PCT now and coupled with the
MSc in Sport and Health Sciences they thought
I'd be ideal as an 'all rounder', which was what
they wanted. So thanks guys!!”
