Academic Policies and Regulation

The University's academic policies, procedures and regulations provide the institutional framework through which we manage the standards of our award-bearing provision and enhance the quality of learning opportunities that we offer to our students. The policies align with the University's Regulations which are provided as quick links in the relevant sections. Policies are supported by guidance notes; relevant forms are positioned alongside these.

Changes in academic policy, approved by Senate, will be highlighted in the Recent Developments section of the website.
