Changes to the Student Experience Programme
This website is no longer active as the Student Experience Programme transitions to a series of projects.
The Student Experience Programme is a long-standing programme which has delivered significant change in new technologies and structures that deliver benefits to students. For example, the programme has recently relaunched the My Manchester portal to students providing valuable self-serve features such as My Library, My Financials and My Bank.
The programme is transitioning to a number of smaller, agile and active projects which will continue to improve the student experience into 2025 and beyond.

eProg Project
eProg is an application which has been developed in-house to manage postgraduate research student progression.
The first phase of the project delivers functionality within eProg to manage thesis submission to enable us to decommission eThesis (the current thesis submission portal)which is no longer supported. To address this, eProg will be enhanced to include thesis management features and capabilities, and existing data will be migrated from eThesis to eProg.
Future phases of the eProg Project will continue to improve eProg’s functionality and sustainability.
For more information please contact: eprogproject@manchester.ac.uk
Assessment and Progression
The vision for the project is to deliver a consistent and efficient way to manage assessment and progression and award process for all students. The project is in early stages with collaboration taking place with our Architecture teams and other related TLS projects. Further updates will be provided into 2025.
