The way that the University deals with student administration will begin changing from August this year. From Admissions through Registration, Module Enrolment, Examinations and Graduation, the people, processes and the systems we rely on to carry out these tasks will start to transition to a new way of working.

The University has organised a number of events to give staff the opportunity to find out how student administration will operate from September 2016. These events are open to all staff and will run from Monday 16 May through to Friday 27 May. There will be a presentation and colleagues will have the opportunity to ask questions about how these changes will affect both staff and students.

The programme of events can be found below. Each event is expected to run for one hour and no sign-up is required – just turn up to an event of your preference.
