To make a nomination for an External Examiner, please log in to Salesforce with your LSE email address and password. You can access guidance about how to do this here for PDF format or here for videos. You can also see the questions included on the form so you know what information to prepare.
External Examiners are nominated by academic departments, with nominations considered with reference to the above eligibility criteria. Nominations are processed (approved) by the Teaching Quality Assurance & Review Office if they comply with the aforementioned criteria. If exceptions are requested by academic departments, the Chair(s) of the Undergraduate or Graduate Studies Sub-Committees will consider the nomination on behalf of the Education Committee.
Nominations should be submitted between July and mid-September each summer for the following academic year.
After you have submitted your nomination request on Salesforce, a review process will take place. You may be contacted to submit further information, or you may receive the outcome of approval directly via email.
Once appointments have been confirmed by the School, External Examiners will receive an appointment contract sent by the Teaching Quality Assurance & Review Office for signature and return. Details of their responsibilities, an acceptance form and other documents will also be provided.
