Academic Policies, Procedures and Regulations

Academic Policies represent the official position of Trinity on its academic activities. They provide clear, simple statements of how Trinity intends to conduct its academic activities that can be used to guide decisions. They are formally approved by Council and/or Board and have broad application across the institution. Once approved, compliance with a policy is mandatory. Guidelines on the development, implementation, monitoring and review of policies are provided in the Policy Management Framework.

Academic Procedures provide detailed mandatory direction on how a policy should be implemented and may be approved by relevant Committees. They establish the ‘who, what, where and when’ in relation to a policy, and establish accountability. Academic Procedures are published on the Academic Policies website.

Academic Regulations set out the rules that govern its academic programmes. The University Calendar contains general regulations regarding studying at Trinity, in addition to specific regulations that apply to undergraduate and postgraduate programmes at Trinity.
