ACADEMIC BOARD


The Academic Board is the most senior University academic committee, with responsibility for academic strategy and leadership.


The Academic Board plays an important role in setting the pace and agenda for development in the academic and cultural life of our University. The Academic Board formed the core of the Strategy Steering Group for our Middlesex Strategy 2031, and will continue to play a pivotal role in embedding the new vision for the University.


In 2020/21, we expanded our academic membership, welcoming two members of the Professoriate as well as the recently appointed Academic Deans of each of our four Faculties. The Campus Directors for Mauritius and Dubai joined as full members to support the strengthening of collaboration across all of our campuses. We are continuing


to work closely with Middlesex University Students’ Union on co-leadership with students, and this year we had a particular focus on shared agenda-setting and on removing barriers to student participation at formal meetings.


The Academic Board worked in a more agile way in 2020/21, reflecting lessons learned during the pandemic. The Terms of Reference were altered to encompass explicit references to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion and to augment provisions around research. Key business included recommending that the University should commit to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, endorsing new Principles of Assessment and Feedback, reviewing policies for academic achievement and support for students during the pandemic and setting up a task and finish group to consider actions to close the awarding gap for Middlesex students.
