Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û

This report summarises the findings of a joint Universities Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û-GuildHE project into the configuration of degree algorithms, and looks specifically at their design, why institutions make changes​ to their algorithms, and finally, makes recommendations to help improve transparency and maintain confidence in sector standards. 

There is a Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û-wide interest in maintaining robust academic standards and understanding the drivers behind the long-term improvement in degree outcomes. National funders and regulators must also make arrangements to assure themselves of the quality of the education that they fund.​â¶Ä‹â€‹

We are working with GuildHE and the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±½á¹û Standing Committee on Quality Assessment to embed the findings and recommendations of this report. 

The report was supported by the Higher Education Funding Council for England, the Scottish Funding Council, the Higher Eduction Funding Council for Wales​ and the Department for the Economy (Northern Ireland).
