Student Representation & Feedback
The student representation system is an important part of the
learning experience at Regent’s College. It is helpful if students
organise themselves as soon as possible each term/semester to
ensure that they are represented appropriately. Acting as a
"student rep" requires a significant commitment of effort and time
but is very rewarding.
Getting Involved with Student Representation
At induction or at the beginning of the term/semester, you will
have the opportunity either through the student union/council or by
mutual agreement between students studying on the same cohort to
engage in ‘student rep’ activities.
Committees Meetings and Events
The following list outlines some of the forums you may be asked
to attend as a student rep:
- Senate and Senate sub-committees
- Faculty Quality Assurance and Enhancement Committee
- Boards of Studies or Programme/Course Committees
- Student Union/Council Meetings
- Validation Events
Senate and Senate sub-committees consider
college strategic and operational matters, and policy
development.
Faculty Quality Assurance and Enhancement
Committee consider faculty academic quality issues.
Boards of Studies or Programme/Course
Committees consider any academic issues relating to
specific programmes and their content.
Student Union/Council Meetings consider a wide
range of student related College and School activities from welfare
to social and sporting events.
Validation and Review Events concern the
(re)approval of programmes by the validating bodies.
Student Feedback
It is expected that students will give informal feedback on an
ongoing basis as and when appropriate, perhaps via your Tutor,
Personal Tutor/Academic Advisor or Programme Director.
Student feedback questionnaire systems are in place to provide
us with your feedback concerning modules. Institutional surveys are
conducted periodically.
Alternatively you can feedback comments through your student rep
to the appropriate committees/meetings.
Student Complaints
We hope that you will not have a need to complain about any
aspect of your student experience but should this occur please
contact the Faculty Registry in the first
instance.
