► ACADEMIC
Students’ come to University to get a degree and, though we hope you have some of the best times of your life on the way, your education is the Union’s top priority. University Education should be a partnership between students and lecturers and the Union helps facilitate this through the Academic Zone.
The Zone is led by a Committee of elected students who are responsible for undertaking and reviewing research into the quality of education at the University of Chichester and to make recommendations and lobby the University for change and improvement. They are also required to develop and propose policy to the Student Senate relating to educational issues of concern to students; this may be specific to Chichester such as feedback, or national issues such as the new tuition fees system.
However most students interact with the Academic Zone through the Course Rep system which allows students to have a say in how their course is run, and students who ask for Individual Representation from the Union to support them in things like Academic Appeals or provide advice on the University’s Academic Regulations. Click the links above for more information about Course Reps and Individual Representation.
