Academic partnerships

Closeup shot of an unrecognisable group of people joining their hands together in a huddle

Our definition of academic partnerships is where any taught module or programme for which we hold ultimate responsibility but is delivered, in whole or in part, by another organisation.

We works with a select number of academic partners to deliver curriculum on a collaborative basis and prides itself on the high quality and robustness of these long-term partnerships. All partnerships are subject to a rigorous approval process and are regularly monitored to maintain quality and standards. These processes are detailed in chapter 5 of the Quality Management Handbook.

A register of our current academic partners is available and is published annually on this page.

We are responsible for the processes relating to partnership approval, review and closure, and work closely with colleagues in academic registry and in faculties.
