Program reviews

Each year the University reviews a number of its academic programs. As part of this process a panel of experts is convened and students, staff and any other stakeholders are able to submit feedback and suggestions about the programs under review.

Your feedback ensures that programs at the University of Newcastle remain contemporary and that we deliver a quality learning experience. The scope of each review is detailed in the associated Terms of Reference. Feedback should be aligned to the Terms of Reference and can be submitted via submissions@newcastle.edu.au.
