Our Policies

This page contains an alphabetical list of University level policies.

The University has in place a range of policies that set out how we intend to act in a particular matter or area of our operations. The policies listed below apply across the University. They have been formally approved by the University Executive or the University Court or Senate or one of their committees as appropriate and are mandatory in nature, i.e. must be followed/adhered to by all concerned.

You can access a policy by its title, either by clicking on the appropriate A-Z letter or the arrow in the column header. You can also search for it by category/theme or by the operational area of the University which owns the policies, i.e. is responsible for its content.

Should you encounter any difficulties with the policy links, please contact policygovernance@ed.ac.uk
