The University of Exeter is a public research university located in Exeter, England. It operates multiple campuses including Streatham and St Luke’s in Exeter and a campus at Penryn in Cornwall.
University of Exeter brings serious academic weight to psychedelic education, with a research-led offer anchored in psychology, psychotherapy, philosophy and the study of consciousness. It is best for graduates and working professionals who want a university-based route into the field rather than an experiential retreat model. The standout feature is its unusually strong specialist bench, including Celia Morgan, Christine Hauskeller, Peter Sjöstedt-Hughes, Andy Letcher and Leor Roseman, alongside an Exeter Psychedelic Interdisciplinary Centre built around research, education and community.
Best suited to therapists, counsellors, psychiatrists and other graduates who want to upskill in psychedelics, plus learners with a serious interest in psychedelic research. The university also positions the programmes for people considering psychedelic-assisted practice or further study.
For the PGCert, Exeter asks for a 2:1 or above in a first degree in any subject, and will also consider relevant professional or practical experience. International applicants need the required English language level, with the PGCert listed under Profile B2. The MSc page lists a typical offer of a 2:1 degree in any subject.
Exeter describes the PGCert as the UK's first academically certified programme in the psychedelics field. The MSc page calls the programme the first academically certified on-campus MSc Psychedelics programme in the world. The published pages do not describe a professional licence qualification, CME or CE credit.
The online PGCert is priced at £5,000 for the full award. Exeter says learners do not need to pay the full fee upfront and can pay per module as they begin each term. The Therapeutic Practice short course is £2,500. The MSc page does not state a single published course fee on the excerpted page.
Learners finish with a university postgraduate certificate or MSc in psychedelics, together with grounding in contemporary psychedelic research, therapy, history, cultural context, ethics and related scientific approaches. Exeter says the PGCert can support aspiring psychedelic-assisted psychotherapists, practitioners seeking to upskill, and people continuing into psychedelic research.
