If you see an error message

When trying to access your timetable, you may get a message saying ‘your timetable is not available’. If that is the case, make sure the timetable for your course has been published by checking the timetable publication dates. After timetables have been published for all students, you will be able to see your personal timetable once you have started the registration process.

If you see a blank timetable

By default, your timetable will display the current week. If there is no teaching scheduled in this week, your timetable will appear empty. Try changing the week using the arrow buttons.

Understand your teaching timetable

Your timetable is available via MYUWE, under the Timetable tab.

In your timetable you will see:

  • Module code and module name (list view only): For example UBGML5-30-3 – Renewable Energy.
  • Type of session: Examples include lecture, seminar or workshop.
  • Delivery mode: Online, on campus, pre-recorded. Please note that pre-recorded sessions are displayed on your timetable to indicate that pre-recorded materials will be made available to you from that day/time; however, you do not need to access this material at the time specified on your timetable.
  • Week number: This indicates the week(s) the session will take place. 
  • Session titles: Some taught sessions have a specific title which will show on your timetable.

Access online taught sessions

Links to online sessions are available on Blackboard (login required).

Request a timetable change

If you are an eligible student at level 2, 3 or on a Master's programme, you can request a change to your timetable via the Online Module Choice system (login required) between 12:00 (midday) on Wednesday 8 January 2024 and 24:00 (midnight) on Sunday 11 February 2024.

After this date, any changes will need to be requested and approved by either a Module Leader or a Programme Leader via email and forwarded to central.timetabling@uwe.ac.uk.

If you’re a level 1 or Foundation student, you will not be able to make changes to your timetable.

Student ambassadors will be available during this time to help you with the Online Module Choice system. Find them at the Information Point on Frenchay Campus.

Changes to your modules and activities are only possible if space is available and it does not create a clash with other activities on your timetable.

If you want to change modules but you are retaking modules, you will not be able to use the Online Module Choice system. You must work with a student support advisor to discuss if this is possible.

New modules not on Blackboard

If you've changed your optional modules it can take up to three working days for them to show on Blackboard.

Module retakes on your timetable

Student Support Advisers will be pre-selecting modules for students who have to retake one or more modules. While this is taking place, your timetable will only show the modules for the current academic year.

If you are still encountering problems with your timetable, please contact us via our self-help form (InfoHub login required).
