The University of Greenwich is undergoing a two-year project to enhance its curricula in line with the Greenwich Curriculum Framework and new Assessment and Feedback Policy. Alongside this project we are also implementing a new Curriculum Management Tool, Courseloop, which will digitise and streamline quality assurance processes, and we have revised our programme approval/validation processes to ensure a structured, efficient and programmatic approach.
Vision & Purpose
We are undertaking the Curriculum Shape project to ensure that our programmes (1) meet our students’ needs, (2) align with our 2030 strategy and university values, (3) deliver education without boundaries through curricula that support social mobility and equality, and (4) to enable us to become the best modern university by supporting the development of world-class systems, processes and services.
A hub for information
Due to the scale of the work taking place, we have a dedicated space for all things Curriculum Shape under our Strategy 2030 Projects section.
This space provides a home for all information including the draft Greenwich Curriculum Framework and Assessment and Feedback Policy documents, you will also be able to review FAQs and keep track on our progress.
We will also add details of the ten pilot programmes that we will be developing over the coming months.
How to get involved
There will be opportunities for staff to get involved via secondments and chances to feed into the programme design. Current opportunities include secondments to provide academic leadership for embedding employability in the curriculum, an interim project manager and fixed term roles to support our work with faculties and schools on implementation plans. Further details are available from the university internal vacancies page.
Curriculum Framework
The new Greenwich Curriculum Framework will support our students to thrive while they are with us at Greenwich, and ensure they are ready for their next step, whether that is work or further study.
Curriculum Management
Our new system will simplify curriculum management processes and support curriculum design and innovation. Here we share project updates and information, including FAQs.
