What are complaints?
As defined by the university, a complaint is “a formal expression of dissatisfaction with any alleged act or omission of the University by a student, former student, applicant or any other user of the University’s services.”
The University has a large community of students engaged in activities of an academic and non-academic nature and there may be instances where students are dissatisfied with some aspect of the activities they engage with. If this happens, matters of dissatisfaction must be raised as quickly as possible.
Your complaint might relate to several different things, including:
-
Discrimination, bullying or harassment
-
Actions or perceived lack of action by a member of University staff
-
Inadequate services or facilities within the University.
Complaints will be handled with an appropriate level of confidentiality, with information released only to those who need it for investigating or responding to the complaint.
