In the context of these regulations “you” means students at Sheffield Hallam University and “University” means Sheffield Hallam University.
These regulations apply to all undergraduate, Integrated Masters and taught postgraduate programmes offered by the University, except where there are specific exemptions, e.g. to meet Professional, Statutory or Regulatory Body (PSRB) requirements. This includes students who are studying a Sheffield Hallam University award at one of our validated partners. Approved exemptions will be published in individual course documentation and are also listed in the Exemptions from the Standard Assessment Regulations.
The University reserves the right to make reasonable changes to the regulations where it will assist in the proper delivery of education. These changes will normally be implemented at the beginning of a standard academic year (i.e. September). We may introduce changes during an academic year when we consider these to be in the best interests of students or where this is required by law.
