The Exams & Awards Team manages the University's exam processes and operations. We compile and publish the exam timetables, train and appoint invigilators, produce pass lists and are responsible for the administration of exam papers.

We also provide support for exam candidates with alternative arrangements and candidates taking resits or deferred attempts at overseas locations.
