This prospectus was accurate at the time of going to print, December 2019. It is important therefore that you check the University website for updates as some information is subject to change.

The University will endeavour to deliver the course in accordance with the description applied to it in the University’s prospectus and on the website for the academic year in which you begin the course. However, the University will be entitled to make reasonable changes to the course, including to content or syllabus of the course where developments in the subject area make that necessary, or to the location, method of delivery or methods of assessment on the course. In making any such changes, the University will aim to make the minimum changes necessary and will notify and consult with affected students in advance about any changes that are required. If the University changes your course and you are not satisfied with the changes, you will be offered the opportunity to withdraw from the programme and, if required, reasonable support to transfer to another provider.

Further, circumstances beyond the University’s reasonable control may prevent it from delivering the courses as described. Examples of such circumstances could include unanticipated departure of key members of University staff or where numbers recruited to the course are such that it is not possible to deliver an appropriate quality of education for students. In these circumstances, the University will take all reasonable steps to minimise any resultant disruption, by, for example, offering those students the chance to move to another course or institution or by delivering a modified version of the same course, but to the full extent that is possible under the general law, the University excludes liability for any loss and/or damage suffered by any applicant or student as a result of those circumstances.
