Lectures

Lectures run from five minutes past the hour to five minutes to the hour, with the following exception:

Part IA and IB lectures in LT0 will start promptly at 9am and 10am.  Lecturers will start lecturing at precisely 9am in order to fit in the full 50 minutes of teaching that they need to deliver:

• First lecture 09.00-09.50 (non-standard)
• Second lecture 10.00-10.50 (non-standard)
• Third lecture 11.05-11.55
• Fourth lecture 12.05-12.55

This schedule allows LT0 to empty and refill at 11am. Students should leave LT0 by the doors at the front and on the North side at the back (leading to the roadway), allowing  students to enter from the foyer and the courtyard.

Lab times and lateness penalties

Morning laboratory/coursework sessions begin at 5 minutes past the hour.

1. Students arriving up to 10 minutes late, i.e. by 15 minutes past the hour, will be penalised 1 mark for late arrival, but may be excluded entirely at the discretion of the demonstrator in charge.
2. Students arriving more than 10 minutes late, i.e. after 15 minutes past the hour, will be automatically excluded from any laboratory experiment. For other coursework activities (e.g. computing, drawing, IEP etc.) the student may, at the discretion of the demonstrator, be allowed to take part in the activity, but will be penalised for late arrival.
3. Students who arrive late due to circumstances beyond their control should first try to rearrange the coursework activity. If this is not possible they may make an application for recovery of marks using the standard allowance procedure.

Afternoon activities

Afternoon activities start on the hour.
