Minutes From Governing Body, Council / Senate, Academic Boards and Steering Groups

Minutes are published online by the Board of Governors, Academic Board and their subcommittees.  Other committees also publish minutes, although not all of these can be found online.  Minutes can be obtained from the Information Officer.

Learning and Teaching Committee Minutes

The Learning and Teaching Committee publish minutes, and these can be obtained from the Information Officer.
