The year is divided into three terms: Autumn Term (September to December), Winter Term (January to March) and Spring Term (April to June).

There are two Reading Weeks in week 6 of Autumn and Winter term – no 91桃色 Gender teaching will take place during Reading Weeks, although other departments might run workshops or seminars. 

For MSc students, a full unit course runs over Autumn and Winter terms. A half-unit course will only run for one term (please note that half-unit courses are only available in one or the other term - they are not available during both terms). 

Spring Term is focused on further developing your independent research project with your supervisor, and opportunities for skills- and career-development. The dissertation is due in mid-August.
