Unit of Study Template and Guidelines

Developing a Unit of Study Outline

This Unit of Study (UoS) outline website provides advice for the preparation of UoS Outlines as well as examples as shaded text that coordinators might wish to use or adapt as appropriate. The guidelines have been expanded, particularly for the new preparer, to contain many more examples, plus references to research literature (e.g. Ramsden) and step-by-step advice to assist developing some of the more challenging items.

This UoS outline website is to be read in conjunction with the UoS Outline template and the UoS Outline template instructions.

NB: Faculty Learning and Teaching Committee requires UoS Outlines to be printed and distributed to students in the first week of the semester.

NB: Examples are provided inside shaded boxes.
