Our taught course External Examiner policy, which is reviewed annually, can be found below.
All policy information can be found in the above policy. The remaining information present on these External Examiner webpages is guidance and supplementary information.
For the purposes of these webpages, and the taught course External Examiner policy, ‘department’ can be read as interchangeable with ‘school’ or other equivalent. ‘Partnerships’ are included under references to ‘departments’ unless a partnerships-specific note is included.
Please note that the policy and information on these webpages relates specifically to taught course External Examiners. For Postgraduate Research External Examiners, please see the Postgraduate Research webpages and contact pgresearch@essex.ac.uk with any queries.
Your appointing Partner Institution should inform you of the specifics of the provision you are overseeing, and questions relating to contractual requirements can be referred to the Quality and Academic Development team for clarification.
