The Academic Calendar

Anglia Ruskin University's Academic Calendar contains information on all the key dates you need for the academic year, including teaching weeks, examination periods and vacations for all taught provision. Calendars for four academic years (2011/12 to 2014/15) are now available.

All of Anglia Ruskin's undergraduate and postgraduate taught pathways are delivered on either a Semester basis (two periods of learning and teaching in an academic year: September to January and January to June) or a Trimester basis (three periods of learning and teaching in a 12 month period: September to January; January to June and June to September). Therefore, for each academic year, two calendars are published: Semester and Trimester deliveries.

In addition to a list of key dates for each academic year, you can also download the full academic calendar in a wall planner format.

The Academic Calendars map directly to the assessment process. An Assessment Calendar, which details the dates of individual Departmental Assessment Panel (DAP), Anglia Ruskin Mitigation Panel and Anglia Ruskin Awards Board meetings, is published by the Academic Office and can be viewed on the Assessment Unit's webpages.

In addition, final dates that can be set for the submission of student work are also provided for use when Module Leaders are developing their module guides and which correspond directly to the academic calendar and assessment processes.

This page does not provide dates of individual examinations - these are available from the Academic Office Examinations section.

[NB: The calendar information provided on this page is for delivery of pathways at Anglia Ruskin's main campuses in Cambridge, Chelmsford, Fulbourn and Peterborough and our partner institutions throughout the UK (except the London College of Accountancy). Teaching dates and examination periods for our overseas partner institutions broadly match those used in the UK but small local variations have been agreed on occasion to accommodate, for example, different public holidays in different jurisdictions. Exact details are provided to students in their Student Handbooks.]
