Subject to validation

All our courses go through an approval process to ensure they meet the highest academic standards, to deliver you the best possible education. This process is known as validation. It involves academic experts, quality assurance teams, and where relevant industry partners, to ensure your degree gives you the quality, experience, and outcomes you expect.

If a course is listed as subject to validation, it means the final course details are being checked as part of this process.

What information is available?
