Before the start of the semester

Usually during the Summer or Christmas vacation, if you are a course unit lecturer, the Laboratory Manager will ask you to confirm details of laboratory exercises associated with your course unit, including the timetable for laboratory sessions, deadlines and marks, extensions policy and so on. You will also be asked to check the schedule for your laboratories:

You will need to supply to the Laboratory Manager exercise scripts for your laboratories approximately 2 weeks before the start of the relevant Semester, if you want these included in the Laboratory Manual.

The Laboratory Manager will then have the time necessary to produce the Laboratory Manual, initialise the ARCADE database, and to allocate demonstrators.
