Embedding Mobility into Institutional Partnerships: Joint Degrees The University is responsible for the academic standards of all awards granted in its name, including joint awards. Appropriate pastoral and academic support for students must be in place. The joint nature of the degree must provide a synergistic dimension to make the mobility more than just a period of study abroad Mobility enhances the student experience and employability at all levels. Key Questions:- How will academic quality be ensured? Are staff at the partner institution qualified for their role and how does the partner institution monitor and ensure proficiency of its staff? How is the quality of learning opportunities ensured for all students? How will the accuracy of public information be monitored?
