Student Representation and Feedback

The School and University take seriously both the issues of student representation and that of quality control of the course. Student representatives will have the opportunity to bring issues to relevant members of staff, and see that they are dealt with satisfactorily. Programme Directors have overall responsibility for the running of the course, and regular meetings of all students with Programme Directors will be arranged. At other times, Programme Directors are available for any issue to be raised. If a student is not satisfied with the way an issue is dealt with, then the Head of School may be approached, or the complaints procedure invoked.

All course units have Unit Surveys (USs), students are encouraged to complete these for they are part of the quality assessment. They are processed by the School, they are read by the course unit lecturers and their appraisers, the Programme Director, the External Examiners, and others who are concerned with the course quality. Other quality controls are maintained by the Faculty, the Government's Engineering and Physical Science Research Council, and the Accreditation bodies.
