HSU Degree Outcomes Statement 2024 - 2025
The UK Standing Committee for Quality Assessment Assurance issued a Statement of Intent in 2019 setting out an expectation that degree‑awarding institutions should publish a degree outcomes statement that reviews and explains their degree classification profile and reports on the findings of an internal institutional review. The statement is intended to show how institutions meet the relevant expectations of the UK Quality Code for Higher Education on safeguarding the value of qualifications, as well as the Office for Students’ ongoing conditions of registration relating to academic standards. HSU’s most recent Degree Outcomes Statement can be found below.
