Student zones open in all three LRCs
11 January 2010
An example of student feedback in action.
No matter where you are in the University, you can go to a student zone in any of the three LRCs and get help, information and advice about any aspect of your student life. Subject-specialist academic help will continue to be generated within the Faculties but the student zones will be the main focus for general student life.
Staff will be available to help with the following:
- Blackboard queries
- Careers and employability appointments
- Coursework submission
- Student finance
- Enrolment
- Exam timetables
- Module registration
- Programme advice and guidance
- PMC submission
- Student administration processes
- Timetables
- Welfare and advice appointments
- Withdrawals
School based staff will continue to deal with course related advice and guidance and Faculties will undertake the work which underpins the delivery of teaching, learning and assessment including:
- Academic delivery support
- Recruitment and marketing
- Collaborative and enterprise administration
- Exam administration
- Faculty research administration
- Faculty quality administration
- Local WoW and graduate skills support
- Mark entry
- MAB/PAB administration
- Programme set-up and maintenance
- Production of the academic timetable
- Work based learning
Students based at Edge Lane should note that the following services will continue to be offered at Edge Lane:

If you need any help or more information please email: zone@ljmu.ac.uk
The establishment of the Student Zones came about as a direct response to feedback from students who wanted us to simplify the services supporting their academic studies and to provide a one-stop-shop approach so that they can access all that they need in terms of University administration in one convenient location.
Your opinion matters - The National Student Survey
From 25 January, level three students will receive an email inviting them to complete the National Student Survey. This is an annual survey of over 350,000 undergraduate students across the UK. It is an influential survey and allows students to give their opinion about their student experience.
The results from the survey are published at unistats.com to help prospective students make choices on what and where to study. The results will also be used by LJMU and the LSU to identify areas for improvement.
