A Dalyell Stream Advisory Group (DSAG) was established in 2023.
The Advisory Group will assist the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Education) and the Academic Board to oversee academic and student experience aspects of the Dalyell stream in all degrees in which it is offered. With a membership that includes all of the Dalyell Faculty Leads, the group will assist to maintain the University-wide Dalyell reputation by ensuring cross-faculty coordination, oversight, and quality reporting on the stream.
The group has a predominantly academic focus, such as advising on what is included in Table D and the Dalyell stream enrichment unit list, and will recommend decisions regarding Dalyell stream student experience and operational matters to the Dalyell Scholars Student Liaison Committee and/or to relevant faculties or professional service units within the Education and Operations portfolios.
