The first phase of the project involved improving the publication of timetable information and implementing the MyTimetable timetable publication tool. All of Leiden University, with the exception of the LUMC, has been using this tool since the start of 2021. MyTimetable shows timetables in a simple, personalised and clear way, and gives a full overview of all teaching activities. It also makes it easy for students and lecturers to import their personal timetable into their own calendar. 

After a successful European tendering process, the project group is currently preparing a university-wide launch of the timetabling application TermTime. All faculties of Leiden University are represented in this team. The objective is to use the application for scheduling the second semester of the academic year 2022-2023.

‘I try to plan my studies well in advance, but timetables are very hard to find, are often not available until late and changes are not clearly communicated, if at all. I sometimes spend ages trying to work out which tutorials will fit best in my timetable.’
