In line with the UK government’s latest advice on COVID-19, most university buildings (with the exception of residential halls) are now closed and all events have been cancelled until further notice.
We have moved to remote working across all of our functions, and continue to support our students through remote teaching, learning and assessment. This means that our current students will be able to progress as appropriate, and final-year students will be supported to achieve their degrees this year, subject to meeting the required academic standards.
We are working closely with the relevant authorities at a local and national level, including funders and regulators, to monitor the wider situation. This includes everything from how to manage applications responsibly to how to release our health, social work and medical students to work in the NHS and social care services.
These are challenging times as we all continue to adapt to these unprecedented circumstances but we remain open for business, and invite you keep an eye on this page and our social media channels as we develop new mechanisms to support businesses.
For advice on existing relationships with the university, please see below. If you have an enquiry that is not addressed, please contact our Business Helpdesk at businesshelpdesk@brighton.ac.uk.
