About the AAD

The Academic Administration Division (AAD) has responsibility for the student career and the systems that underpin this, from admission and funding to examinations and graduation, centrally managed student services such as counselling, disability support, careers and sport, planning and resources and educational policy. The AAD also includes the four divisional offices, the Academic Services and University Collections Secretariat and the Continuing Education Secretariat.

The AAD is involved in the development of strategies and policies for approval by Council and other major University bodies across a wide area. The Division provides information, guidance and publications for prospective applicants and on-course students, manages the content of the University Admissions and Student Gateway websites, organises University events and advises on and implements communications activity. The Division operates in close partnership with academic and administrative staff throughout the collegiate University.

The AAD is headed by the Deputy Registrar, Michael Sibly. He reports to the Registrar and works closely with the five functional Pro-Vice-Chancellors, the four Heads of Division, and a wide range of academic and administrative staff throughout the collegiate University as well as taking an active role in representing the University at meetings with the City and County Council.
