1. Introduction

Examination Conventions 2012-13

1.1 The following conventions should be read in conjunction with the General University Regulations. Reference should also be made to Regulations for individual programmes of study (non modular programmes of study are identified as such within the University Calendar). These conventions do not override or modify University Regulations in any way.

1.2 The conventions are intended as guidelines within which the Faculty will normally work. However, it is the ultimate responsibility of the Faculty to recommend in the case of each student that result which is deemed just in the light of all the evidence presented to the Examiners. Where any Faculty recommendation is contrary to University Regulations, a Special Regulation (approved by the Senate) is required.
