Access your timetable
Information about how to access your timetable to plan your schedule and work out where your teaching will take place
The University is committed to delivering 'whole-class' timetable information (e.g. lectures) and 'sub-group' timetable information (e.g. tutorials, labs etc.) to all students.
You will be able to access your personalised timetable from the start of August onwards.
Your personalised timetable will show your teaching activities by date, time and week pattern and will help you plan your schedule and work out where your classes and lectures will be held.
More information about Student Timetables
Your timetable is shown on your Office 365 calendar that is linked to your university email address. If you are not sure how to access your email we have added a guide below.
Optional Courses
If you have additional courses to choose from as part of your Programme, you can use the Course Timetable Browser to see how you can fit your 'optional' courses around your 'core' courses. Your optional courses will show up in your personalised calendar after they have been confirmed with your School at the start of University (usually from Welcome Week onwards). Once you are enrolled in a course, your timetable will be updated in a central timetabling system within 24h.
It is strongly recommended that you look through the information on the Course Options Hub at your earliest convenience so that you have enough time to research your optional courses and understand the process of choosing and confirming your choices.
The information on the Course Options Hub will continue to develop throughout the summer so please do check back in regularly.
You can access your timetable through MyEd by clicking the following tabs: MyEd Homepage > Studies > My courses > Timetables
The advantages of viewing your timetable through MyEd:
- All core course teaching activity is viewable from the start of August
- Can see your full academic year of scheduled teaching activities
- Instant changes to any teaching activity will show in this calendar
If nothing is showing on your personalised timetable please check with your School that your course enrolments have been processed.
If you have any questions, you should direct them directly to your School from August.
Your Office 365 calendar will start showing your core teaching activities a week or 2 before the start of teaching.
Access your Email & Calendar on Office 365
Updates can take time to appear in your Office 365 calendar and will be inputted in scheduled phases, therefore you may only be able to see a week or 2 in advance at the start of Semester and it could take up until the end of December for the full academic year to show.
Changes to your schedule may take up to an hour to show in the Office 365 calendar whilst they will be instant on the myEd web version (as above)
Timetable on your mobile devices
You can also access your timetable information by adding your Office 365 calendar to your phone
