Contact the Quality & Standards Team

The Quality & Standards department is one of the teams within Academic Registry.

We develop principles and processes relating to quality assurance and enhancement, in consultation with stakeholders from across the University, that take account of external requirements and institutional priorities.

We are responsible for the implementation and oversight of centrally managed activities, and for supporting faculties in the execution of their responsibilities.

Q&S provides expert advice and guidance to colleagues, both in person and through a range of training materials.
