The Joint Programme Proposal Form
Academic members of staff who are considering developing a joint programme are required to complete the JPC Proposal Form to provide required academic and administrative details. The proposal will be reviewed and assessed by the Joint Programmes Committee. The Committee’s recommendation will be forwarded to the Programme Validation Committee (PVC) where a proposer will then be asked to follow Stage 1 and Stage 2 proposal forms as indicated below and on the PVC's website.

Stage 1 and Stage 2 Proposal Forms (PVC)
Stage 1 concentrates on the practicality and feasibility of the idea generated within the overall vision and strategy of the University.  Stage 2 focuses on the design and detailing of the academic programme given that the original idea has been approved in principle by Senate.  Programme originators are encouraged to start developing the proposal at a sufficiently early stage and to adhere to the deadlines established by the PVC to ensure that the validation process (both internal and external) is completed in time to allow for the proper marketing of the programme.
