UL is committed to providing a transformative learning experience to our students

As part of this process our Integrated Curriculum Development Framework (ICDF), assists programme teams to work together to co-construct dynamic, enacted, responsive and responsible programmes and modules.

The language building

To ensure a consistent, positive and coherent approach to our students’ learning journeys, the ICDF embeds the synergy between teaching and research, fostering learning that is:

  • Research-led

  • Challenge driven

  • Experiential

  • Collaborative

The purpose of UL's ICDF is to:

  • Establish a shared understanding of the curriculum across the university

  • Provide guidance on the planning, designing, assessing and evaluation of programmes

  • Align and connect with processes for programme design, approval and review

  • Incorporate content, pedagogy and learning for sustainability 

  • Provide a foundation for a positive and coherent student experience and involvement in the curriculum

  • Assist with embedding the UL Graduate Attributes to articulate the distinctiveness of a UL education and our UL Graduates


The ICDF draws on national and international standards to ensure coherent and consistent academic programme development.
