planning for study week

Time and study management

For many students, especially those with family or work commitments, the biggest question of all is: can I find the time?
University study is usually quite flexible compared with a full-time job, although childcare and other arrangements will need to be planned carefully.
Your workload will also vary during the year – several pieces of coursework may be due at the same time, for example. You’ll know in advance when your assignments are due and you can access study support from your lecturer and from the Student Services team.

Making plans

Once you have developed a clear idea of your key activities and their related tasks you can begin to make plans. A plan or timetable needs to suit your personal needs.
