Further academic support

We want you to succeed

At MDX, we want you to excel in your studies, to be supported throughout and graduate ready and prepared for your future career.

As well as the support of our brilliant advisors, lectures and support staff you have access to during your time here, there is also a whole range of other services, bonuses and information that can help you boost your employability, help with your studies and make your time at MDX the best it can be.

Demonstrating academic integrity

Academic integrity is a quality that demonstrates values such as honesty, fairness and respect for others and their work. We support students to learn about these important professional skills, so that you can be proud of your own work.

Demonstrating academic integrity is a highly valued graduate attribute as it shows that you work in a professional and ethical way.

To learn more about this subject, all new students must complete an online Academic Integrity Awareness Course. You can find this resource logging into MyUniHub and then going to My Learning. You will find the course under ‘My courses’.

Extenuating circumstances

Extenuating circumstances are exceptional, seriously adverse and outside-of-your-control situations that affect your ability to meet an assessment deadline or affect your performance in an assessment.

We have put together some frequently asked questions and answers on how to manage such circumstances and how to apply for a short extension or deferral of an assessment.

You should seek guidance and advice before your assessment deadline, or exam date, as it may be too late to make an application after the deadline. It is your responsibility to familiarise yourself with the online guidance before making an extenuating circumstances application.

The Museum of Domestic Design and Architecture (MoDA)

The Museum of Domestic Design and Architecture (MoDA) is part of MDX and is an excellent resource for your studies, particularly in Art and Design.

Our collections of textiles, wallpapers, graphic design and illustration are great for generating ideas, getting inspired and producing research.

Understand your assessments

Your work during your course will be assessed in a number of ways.

There may be a choice and it's very important that you complete all the required parts of the assessment. For more information regarding University assessment criteria, please see our University Regulations

Improve your writing

The Learning Enhancement Team will help you get the most out of your time at University, giving you the tools and support needed to excel in both Academic writing and numeracy.

Dedicated Academic Advisor

All students starting on undergraduate and foundation programmes will have a named academic advisor who will meet you at key points in the year. They will provide information and support if you have concerns at any point in the academic year.

You can find the details of your academic advisor in myUniHub or the MDXapp within your Key Contacts section.

Free printing on campus

Another way that we can help keep the cost of studying low is by offering free printing to all students.

The Sheppard Library is the hub of print activity across campus with a range of printers installed for students. We expect all students to use the free printing and photocopying responsibly.

See the how-to-guides for more information on using this service.
