Student rights
Programme information You are entitled to the academic content of your programme of study, plus the mode of delivery and assessment requirements. You should expect to receive a timetable showing when tuition is scheduled, and when work is to be set and handed in.
You are also entitled to receive regular information concerning your academic performance. This is generally provided by informal and formal feedback from tutors during the course of the academic year and you should be told when this is to be given.
You will also be provided with a summary transcript of marks at the end of the academic year, and a formal certificate on the completion of your programme.
Key programme information is set out in a number of documents provided by tutors; you should retain these for future reference, particularly when demonstrating to professional bodies or possible future employers what you actually studied.
For further information see Programme Matters on page 30.
Freedom of speech As an academic institution, LJMU is committed to freedom of enquiry. We are committed to rational resolution of disagreements and to maintaining our University as a place within which opinions can be debated without the threat of violence and intimidation.
However, it should be recognised that not all speech is protected by this commitment. Any form of threat, intimidation, abuse, coercion, incitement to violence, racial hatred or similar acts by students or staff constitutes a disciplinary offence.
