Giving us feedback about your course

We like to hear your feedback on your course and modules. This can be when things go well and when you think things can be improved. We have a few ways that you can do this. Firstly, if the item relates to a module, you can speak to your module co-ordinator. Secondly, you can speak to one of the representatives in the year for the Staff Student Consultative Committee (SSCC).

Also, you can contact the department by email. We will new Tell Us Now initiative from the University, which includes a way to send your feedback to the department.

We always prefer to hear about any issues sooner than later, so please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Staff Student Consultative Committee (SSCC) Representatives

The SSCC meets a couple of times each year, around the middle of the two Semesters.

The representatives will seek your views ahead of the meetings, but you can contact them at any time to raise any issues. You can find the contact details of your academic representatives can be found on your Student Record in the Academic Record section.

Dave Hunter co-ordinates the SSCC. If you have questions about the SSCC, please contact him (contact details).
