When do lectures take place? Monday to Friday, between 9am and 6pm. The timetable changes every semester, so we cannot tell you precisely. Tutorials are one hour long; lectures last two hours; seminars and practicals three hours.
Where are the lectures held? All scheduled teaching takes place on the central
city centre campus, this year most of our lectures are in Roland Levinsky, Levinsky Hall. Other sessions take place in rooms around campus, but all are less than five minutes away from each other.
What are the term dates? We have
two 15 week long semesters, and have scheduled teaching in ten weeks of each semester (the other weeks are set aside for reading, independent and group work, completing coursework, and sitting examinations).
How much 'contact time' is there? Over the whole course, 24 per cent of your time is spent in scheduled sessions (based on a 40 hour week). In the first year, there are on average 16-17 hours a week. You can compare this with other courses on the
UNISTATS website.
