Over the course of your time in the IR Department you will work closely with a number of staff members. These include the faculty who convene your courses and your class teachers, but also other members of the teaching team and the professional services team. This team outlines who to approach about the different aspects of your course.
Programmes Co-ordinators
These members of the professional services team handle the administration of your courses, and can answer questions about all aspects of assessment, feedback, course selection, timetabling, extensions, and many other topics besides. If your programme co-ordinator isn’t able to answer your question, they will be able to direct you to the most relevant team member.
