University Education Committee (UEC)

The University Education Committee (UEC) is a subcommittee of Academic Senate. Its role is to provide leadership in the development of policies and strategies aimed at achieving the University's objectives in teaching and learning.

Chaired by Professor Rob Castle, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic), the UEC is a forum for the University community to raise, discuss and endorse changes to learning and teaching policies and issues before they are sent to Academic Senate for approval.
