What is 'Student Representative Council'
This is a gathering of your Department Representatives and Representative Networks, to hear updates from the Union and Full-Time Officer Team and help plan our work. It's a chance to share the best work that your representatives do!
Students met last Wednesday on the 24th of February.
What was discussed?
-
Changes to your module structure
There are some changes to how modules are conducted, and how this will effect students. Your representatives gave some key questions as feedback for the university:
- How will content be decided over things being lost, 'cutting stuff from a course' and how does the effect workload
- How does this change work for students who have no optional modules or no exams?
- Does this effect apprentice courses?
- What exactly happens with compulsory modules? Does this weight out differently?
Once we have some answers, look out for an FAQ!
