Students in a lecture

The Student Charter

The Student Charter is an important statement of what students can expect from the University and student obligations to the University. There are 2 important appendices to the Charter:

  • Supplementary Statement of Student Rights and Responsibilities for Students on Taught Programmes
  • Supplementary Statement of Student Rights and Responsibilities for Students on Research Programmes

The Student Charter has been agreed after detailed consultation between University and Student representatives. It is subject to annual review.

The Student Guide

The Student Survival Guide (PDF: 1.709KB) gives you information and help on every aspect of student life while you are at University.

Each student is issued with a copy of the guide during registration and should keep it as a handy reference. It is full of detail on areas such as academic progress, examinations and assessments, computing facilities, accommodation, financial help and student wellbeing.
