Understanding your LJMU timetable

Below we guide you through all the essential information regarding your timetables. Additionally, our introductory video provides an overview to ensure you’re up to speed.

Please note:
Students accessing the timetables platform from an Apple device might have challenges viewing their timetable if they have the pop-up blocker on. You will need to go to your device Settings, select Safari and then slide the pop-up blocker to off. Then when you revisit the timetables platform and search for a timetable under your programme name, if you find that the search box is blank you will need to click or tap on the blank search box and the search list will appear.

Your set of timetables

As an LJMU student you will have access to three timetables.

Induction Week Timetable

If you are starting your studies in January 2025, your induction week sessions will be outlined in your general programme timetable. You must attend all activities and induction week sessions for your course. This will help to set you up for university life.

If you are starting your studies in September 2025, you will be able to access your induction week timetable in late August, after you receive confirmation of your place at LJMU.

Please note:
You can use the filters to find the induction activities and sessions that you must attend. Input your year of study, school and programme name to find your timetable.

General Programme Timetable

If you are starting your studies in January 2025, your general programme timetable is already available online. If you are starting your studies in September 2025, you will be able to access your general programme timetable in September.

Your general programme timetable will show all the group and module activities happening on your course. It provides students with an overview of the entire teaching schedule. Don’t worry, your personal timetable will streamline these sessions for you.

Please note:
Each session will list the time, room and duration, along with the type of session. This could be a lecture, seminar, or online via Canvas.

Personal Timetable

Once you have completed your student registration and all your modules have been added, you can access your personal timetable. If you are starting your studies in January 2025, this should be from sometime in the week starting Monday 20 January 2025. If you are starting your studies in September 2025, you will be able to access your personal timetable in September.

This shows you which group and module activities you should attend for your course and is tailored to you.

Please note:
Some courses may not have personal timetables, and this will be clear when you try to view yours.

Accessing your timetables

You can access your induction and programme timetables on the Timetables platform.

Your personal timetable will be added to your My LJMU account under My Timetable once you are fully enrolled on all your modules.

Please note:
Most of our students start their studies in September each year. Students starting their studies at other times in the year will be contacted directly about their course start date and induction.

I still need help understanding my timetables

As an LJMU student, you must attend all your timetabled sessions throughout induction week and the academic year.

You can find more information on the student timetable guidance webpage if you need further help. This includes an explanation of the room and building codes used in your timetable.

If you have further questions about your timetables, please submit a student enquiry form on My LJMU.
