Examination Dates and Times
Examination dates and start times for the academic year are now available and can be viewed below. The University will continue to adopt a hybrid approach to assessment, involving a mixture of in-person and online examinations.
IMPORTANT
Please note, students must be available for examinations at all times during examination periods. The dates listed below are for centrally timetabled examinations only. Departments may also organize locally timetabled examinations outside of these periods.
The construction of the examination timetable is a highly complex process that involves balancing a range of constraints and exam formats. As a result, there are limited occasions where students may be scheduled to sit two exams in one day.
