Teaching Operations
Teaching Operations comprises the Student Services Team and the Teaching Administration Team. Their overall remit encompasses the formal student support and advisory function for all Business School PGT (MSc) and UG students, and the delivery of core administration related to the delivery of teaching and assessment on all Business School PGT (MSc) and UG programmes and courses.
Student Services
We provide a specialised and professional student support service, delivered by a team of dedicated Student Advisers and a Wellbeing Adviser. You will have a named Student Adviser who is your first point of call for any queries you may have throughout your time as a student.
Student Advisers will sign you up to courses, if this has not already been done.
You can go to your Student Adviser throughout the year if you are facing challenges or if you are worried about something. If you are facing serious ongoing challenges or are in crisis, your case may be escalated to the Student Services Manager, Wellbeing Adviser, and/or the Director of Students.
Student Advisers will be located on the ground floor of the Business School. You can find who your student adviser is by referring to your student record within EUCLID.
Learn more about how our specially trained staff, academics and fellow students work together to provide you with guidance and support when needed.

Meet your Student Advisers
You will receive an email confirming the name of your Student Adviser prior to starting your programme.
Teaching Administration Team
The Teaching Administration Team works closely with your UG Cohort leads, course organisers, Student Advisers, and the Student Development Team, and are responsible for all administrative elements of your programme and courses throughout your studies.
The main purpose of the Teaching Administration Team is to ensure your smooth progression through the programme. We administer all teaching and assessment processes, exam boards, and publication of marks and awards.
The team also works closely with Student Advisers and student programme representatives to ensure there is a flow of information between the programme and our office, academic staff, and other professional services.
