🎓 Calling All Students! 🎓

Get Involved in Shaping Your Education!

Are you passionate about your studies and eager to make a difference? Looking for ways to earn money alongside your studies? Join us in the process of validations and revalidations of programmes at Birmingham Newman University! This is your chance to have a direct impact on the quality and relevance of the courses offered.

What are validations/revalidations?

For a programme to be approved and delivered, it has to go through a validation process first. This process involves the quality office, academics, students, and external panellists reviewing the documentation to ensure the programme is fit for purpose and is in line with the university's vision. Once approved, the programme is validated for a standard length of five years (unless stated otherwise). Once this period had ended, it has to be revalidated.

  • Voice Your Opinions: Share your insights to help improve our programmes. This is your chance to implement change based on your experiences.
