Regulations for studying at UEA

General regulations

The regulations are the rules under which your course is run. You agree to abide by the regulations when you complete registration for your course. This can be online or in writing.

The University's regulations can be accessed via the UEA Academic Calendar and should be read and understood by each student studying at UEA, especially the General Regulations for Students.  The regulations cover procedures and rules relating to
  • Student life e.g. payments of fees and keeping in touch with the university throughout your course
  • Student behaviour e.g. behaviour on campus and university property, abiding by health and safety regulations
  • Academic provision e.g. attending lectures, seminars, exams etc. avoiding plagiarism, conducting ethical research and respecting diversity amongst students and staff
  • University properties e.g. rules for use of the library, computer services, car park and other university facilities

Different degrees have different regulations, and this is especially true when you look at the differences between undergraduate and postgraduate degrees.
