The Insert, Symbol command gives you access to a wide variety of superscripts.
You haven't mentioned a version of Word you are using so I will defer from mentioning the Equation Editor.

Thanks for your feedback.

If you're using the equation editor / equation tool in Word, exponents are on the equation palette.
If you're creating the equation yourself, you can use superscript - select the exponent and press Ctrl+Shift+= to convert it to superscript.
