List of Programmes subject to the Student Fitness to Practise Procedure

The University’s List of Programmes subject to the Student Fitness to Practise Procedure is set out below and includes all courses where students, upon completion, would normally become registered with an appropriate regulatory body in health or social care.

Where a Fitness to Practise issue arises with a student who is already a registrant, such as on a postgraduate course, we would typically expect this to be dealt with through the students' employer, or to be reported directly to the regulatory body.

In certain circumstances, for example where a postgraduate student is not currently employed within the relevant field, or where we have been guided by the regulatory body to do so, the University reserves the right, to apply the Student Fitness to Practise Procedure to students on related programmes which are not included below.
