STA Student Handbook (Taught Programmes) 2025/26

QMPlus

QMplus is Queen Mary's virtual learning environment (VLE). You will use QMplus in a variety of ways during your time as a student here. Common uses of QMplus are:

To access information about modules you are studying
To submit assignments
To communicate with academic staff and other students

Module pages

Each module you're studying has its own area on QMplus. You can access the module area for any module by typing the module code into the search box on QMplus.

Each module area contains all the information about a particular module you're taking. It will tell you:

The module outline (or profile) and learning outcomes
Assessment criteria
What assignments you must submit for the module, and when
Who teaches on the module (and their contact details)
Timetable details for the module
Whether you have had any absences recorded for the module

If you think that you have been registered for the wrong module on QMplus, or do not have access to a module which you are taking, then contact STA Reception (ArtsOne 1.40) or contact us via AskQM and we will check the details for you.

STA Homepage

The STA homepage has information about all the policies and process in STA. If you have a question you are likely to find the answer here yourself.

Student Support materials

Student Support information on QMplus and QMplus Media, including submitting written and video assignments can be found on the STA Student Digital Tools Training area.
