Booking a room for teaching

This is done as an annual exercise by the Timetabling and Room Booking team who:

• create all teaching timetables, across all faculties, for academic staff and students
• organise room booking for the teaching timetable.

Bookings that are not associated with teaching but would benefit from being displayed on a student/staff timetable (for example, regular research seminars) should be discussed with your Faculty Education Officer. 

For contacts and queries see Timetabling team contact page.

Booking a room for a non-teaching event

Staff should visit the non-teaching events web room booking page to:

• request rooms for non-teaching events, (for example, meetings and conferences)
• check room timetables.
