The dates below are the standard teaching and assessment dates for most undergraduate and postgraduate courses. For postgraduate research courses, please contact the Doctoral Academy for your term dates.

Please note that there will be some programmes that sit outside of these dates, such as education, nursing and other health care programmes which will have their own structure for the academic year. Individual start dates are available via our preparing to study documents.
