The Course Advisory Committee is an advisory committee of the School Committee which then reports to the Learning and Teaching Committee. The function of each Course Advisory Committee is to:

  1. consider and give advice to the School Committee on the development of new courses, seeking expert advice where necessary.
  2. draw to the Learning and Teaching Committee’s attention, via the School’s Committee, recent developments and trends in specific fields of study and research and directions in course development.
  3. provide advice and guidance on the implications of changing government policy and procedures within the higher education sector and how these may relate to, or impact upon, MIT’s courses.
  4. review course documentation to ensure that it meets standards of rigour and depth appropriate to an award at that level and that course rationale, aims and content are consistent and reflect best practice.
  5. receive and comment upon new and revised outlines for units of study within existing courses.
  6. keep under review quality assurance mechanisms paying particular attention to assessment procedures, stakeholder feedback and benchmarking with other higher education institutions where possible.
