Free personal core eTextbooks are provided to all students enrolled on undergraduate and postgraduate modules based at the Hendon campus. The scheme is run in partnership with the company Kortext. Look out for emails from Kortext sent to your Middlesex University email account to activate your eTextbooks.
You can access your eTextbook through myLearning, after logging into myUniHub, or through the Kortext app. If you experience any difficulties, visit our eTextbooks support page.
Adobe Creative Cloud is a collection of over twenty desktop and mobile apps for photography, design, video, web and UX. You can access Adobe applications on your own device (or a university laptop) from anywhere.
Adobe Creative Cloud access will replace Kortext print or e-Textbooks provided to specific programmes of study, which require access as part of their course curriculum. Students will be automatically provided with access to the university licensed Adobe Creative Cloud. For more information on available software, visit UniHub.
We’re passionate about supporting you to reach your potential. One of the ways we do this is by allocating you a personal tutor. Personal tutors can provide you with academic guidance and support but also advise on any social or professional opportunities.
You can find your personal tutor’s contact information by visiting the Key Contacts tile in MDXapp or by logging into myUniHub.
Student Learning Assistants (SLA’s) are experienced students who have been identified by academic staff as capable learners and know the typical issues new students face in their studies. SLA’s do not teach students but they are fully trained to work with you, using effective questioning and active learning methods, to help you excel in your studies.
You can also make the most of our Graduate Academic Assistants (GAA’s) who are full-time members of staff employed by Middlesex to support you with your programme. They provide drop-in sessions for advice relating to your programme and provide additional academic support, such as proof reading, around coursework deadlines.
Your Library Liaison Officers are subject-specific librarians who support your learning by helping you make the most of library resources. The team have a wealth of knowledge and expertise that can make studying an easier and more rewarding experience.
If you would like to find the right material for your studies but don’t know where to start, visit our Ask a Librarian portal.
The Learning Enhancement Team (LET) are a team of specialists to help you make the most out of your time at university, giving you the tools and support you need to excel in the aspects of your studies which relate to academic writing and language and mathematics, statistics and numeracy.
Currently, the team are not running face-to-face workshops, drop-ins or tutorials but you can still access online LET tutorials. You can also access online self-study resources for guidance on academic writing and language and maths, statistics and numeracy.
Module tutors publish deadlines for the submission of coursework in advance, so you will know when your work is due. It is important to plan your workload to meet these deadlines. If you haven’t already, familiarise yourself with the myLearning portlet, by logging into myUniHub, as this is where you will find your teaching and assessment information.
If you are having trouble meeting a deadline, you may be entitled to a short extension or a deferral of assessment. For more information, including how to apply and FAQs, visit the Extenuating Circumstances page on UniHub.
At the start of term, why not make life a little less stressful by being aware of the exam regulations?
Headphones and electronic devices are not allowed in the exam.
The use of a smart watch is prohibited.
Female students wearing religious or cultural headwear that covers the ears may be asked to go into a separate room to have a female invigilator carry out a check. This may require you to remove the headwear to check for headphones and/or confirm your identity.
For more information on exam rules and regulations, read our notice to students.
What is academic integrity, I hear you ask? Academic integrity is about being fair, honest and respectful towards others and their work. In order to demonstrate academic integrity, you must be able to demonstrate independent thinking and critical thinking, which you will be supported to develop whilst you complete your studies.
Academic misconduct is a breach of the values of academic integrity. It includes, but is not limited to, plagiarism, commissioning or buying work for a third party, or copying the work of others.
Find out how we can support you to achieve academic integrity.
Start by taking the short online course ‘Becoming a Successful Student’.
