FASS Forum for Joint Students
The FASS Forum was first organised in 2008, to collect feedback
from student representatives on joint and combined programmes
across the Faculty. Its success in identifying and addressing some
problems experienced by these students led to the adoption of an
annual Forum.
Chaired by Sarah Jane Dickenson, Deputy Dean Learning and
Teaching, and organised by the Faculty Administrator, the Forum
takes place early in Semester 2. All student representatives on
joint and combined programmes are invited, together with the
Student Union Vice President (Education), two Heads of
Department from multidisciplinary departments in the Faculty and 2
departmental secretaries. Academic and administrative
representatives from areas outside the Faculty are also invited as
appropriate.
The first forum led to a set of good practice recommendations
which were approved by faculty Learning and Teaching committee.
