Here at Hull York Medical School, our culture is built on providing an exceptional education and learning environment in which all our students can thrive. This is underpinned by an ethos of transparency, openness and consistency.
As a partnership Medical School, we work closely with the governance frameworks of the Universities of Hull and York, whilst also meeting the national requirements as defined by the General Medical Council and the Quality Assurance Agency. This collaboration ensures that we stay connected with the national agenda in medicine, so our students are equipped with the skills they need to become excellent healthcare professionals and succeed in an ever-changing NHS.
We have a number of regulations, policies and codes of practice relating to our specific activities. These set out principles, requirements, standards, roles, responsibilities and procedures so that we can conduct business effectively.
It's important that both staff and students familiarise themselves with the policies and codes that apply across the whole School, as well as those that are specific to our undergraduate or postgraduate programmes.
We regularly review our policies and regulations in the interest of our students, in close collaboration with the Quality Assurance Agency and the General Medical Council. We welcome feedback on any of our regulations, policies and codes of practice as we continually strive to improve our offer to students.
