Academic Regulations

Academic Senate sets, approves and reviews the policy and rules for the academic administration of students relating to matters such as Admissions, Subject and Course Approval, Enrolment, Credit, Assessment, Academic Misconduct (including plagiarism), Academic Progress (including Exclusion), Appeals, Graduation, and Higher Degrees.

These policies and rules are known as the Academic Regulations.

In such matters, Academic Senate is regarded as definitive.

Academic Senate also establishes and reviews policy relating to standards and academic quality systems. Thus, processes involving subject and academic aspects of course approval are regulated by Academic Senate. Other aspects of course approval such as location of offering are handled via UCPC but the Presiding Officer, Academic Senate is a member of this Committee and, together with other members, ensures that location of offering of courses is consistent with approved academic policy (e.g. International Education Strategy which is approved by Senate).

The academic regulations are published in the Academic Manual which is updated by the Academic Senate following each Academic Senate meeting.

Several of the Committees of Academic Senate have been delegated authority, by the Academic Senate, to consider matters relating to the academic regulations and to recommend to Academic Senate any changes to current regulations or any new regulations that they believe are necessary.

Anyone who wishes to recommend any changes to existing academic regulations or who has an enquiry about regulations should contact the Manager, Academic Senate or Academic Secretary in the first instance.

The academic regulations in the Academic Manual have been listed below under their individual headings as follows:
