To ensure academic standards and externality in the assessment process, each Programme will have at least one External Examiner who takes an overview of the assessment process of the Programme. There may be additional External Examiners appointed for large Programmes, or to cover particular academic areas within a Programme, as determined by the appropriate Board of Studies. An External Examiner may also be appointed to cover a number of related Programmes.
Nominations for External Examiners are considered by Boards of Studies and approved by the Deputy President and Provost (or their nominee) on behalf of Senate. Appointments are made according to criteria and conditions that ensure the seniority and expertise of External Examiners to carry out the full range of duties. Criteria and conditions are set out in the External Examiners Policy.
External Examiners are appointed for a period of up to a maximum of four years. Exceptionally, this can be extended by one further year.
Appointments can be terminated prematurely by the Deputy President and Provost (or their nominee) on behalf of Senate, or the External Examiner, in line with the approved criteria and process published in City’s Quality Manual.
