University of Glasgow

Academic Standards Committee - Friday 13 February 2015

Report from the Virtual Programme Approval Group for the College of Arts held on 2 December 2014

Cover Sheet

Ms H Clegg, Senate Office

 
Brief description of the paper 

As reported to ASC previously, the College of Arts had advised the Programme Approval Group that the documentation relating to the component courses of the proposed MLitt Fantasy had not been presented to the College Board of Studies, and that only verbal descriptions of the courses had been given. It was agreed to remove the MLitt Fantasy proposal from the PAG’s business until such times as the course documentation received full consideration and approval by College. College later advised that the documentation relating to the component courses had been produced but a misunderstanding meant it was not presented to College in the usual way.

The PAG received the full proposal after College approval and considered the proposal by email communication.
