What is it about?

This session will help you understand how the University makes its decisions and the structures in place to support this including University Management, governance, dual assurance and faculties.

- 'The general overview of how the University works was very useful.

Having worked here for some time it was good to gain some sort of understanding of the overarching management structure'.

- 'With the immanent change to Colleges I feel I have a clearer understanding of how decisions are reached, and what checks and balances are in place to ensure they have been well considered'.
