Academic calendar
Undergraduate academic calendar 2011/12
This calendar relates to students following a standard undergraduate academic year. For undergraduate students who have an extended year (for example education students who have teaching practice), details of their patterns of expected attendance / assessment will be published in individual course guides/handbooks issued by the Faculty responsible for the programme.
Freshers' activities are organised by our students' union. Please see the Hallam Union website for more information.
