Hello everyone. In this video, I will show you how to read, choose, and view your timetable at UTS.

This video assumes that you have already enrolled in your subjects for the upcoming sessions. To check this, you can visit the Current Enrolments section within the Subjects tab in your My Student Admin.

First, go to your My Timetable, then select the appropriate year. Log in with your student ID and password.

Once you are logged in, you will see the My Timetable home page, displaying all the subjects you are enrolled in for the upcoming calendar year. For example, you might see subjects for Autumn and Spring. Under each subject, you may see multiple activities, such as lectures, tutorials, sections, and seminars.

Many subjects will have a variety of types and numbers of activities listed. You need to make sure you have a time allocated under each of these activities.

If you have a subject that includes sections, you will need to decide on a section, then choose one option for every type of class listed under that section. A subject coordinator may implement sections for reasons such as ensuring the same students are on campus on the same day to help with group work.

In this example, if you choose section 1, denoted by SC01, you will not be able to select any of the times shown under section 2.

Your My Timetable can show a lot of information, so it's best to get a good idea of what everything means. First, let's take a look at the status bar just underneath your name. The status bar gives a quick breakdown of all the activities you have allocated, and how many you still have remaining. You should aim for the 'Not allocated' section to be zero.

Now, let's look at one of these subjects. Above the name of the subject, you will see a code that provides helpful information about the subject you are choosing a timetable for. The first five digits in this code show a unique code for that subject. Next to that, you will see SPR, which signifies you are enrolled in the subject for the Spring session. This can also show AUT for Autumn, or SUM for Summer. After this, you will see the letter U. This signifies the campus where the subject is taking place. Here, you might see U for Ultimo, or MP for Moore Park. At the end, you will see the letter S. This signifies the subject's study mode. In this case, S means standard mode, which usually runs for the full length of the session. You may also see D for distance or online subjects, or B for block mode subjects, which are often run in shorter, more intensive study periods.

Now, let's take a look at choosing a time for the tutorial for the subject Managing People and Organisations. Once you have selected the tutorial, on the right you will see all the available times this class runs. It will show the activity number, day, time, campus, location during session, duration, weeks the class is running, and any additional notes.

In this example, there are a number of times available for the tutorial. You may choose from any that show 'Select'. In some scenarios, you may automatically be allocated to a time, usually if there is only one activity available.

Let's choose the first available time. In addition to the message 'Select', you may also see 'Full', indicating the activity has reached capacity, or 'Clash', which means the activity is running at the same time as one of your other allocated activities.

If there is a class time that is full but you would prefer to select that time, you can use the Favourite function to be placed in the activity if any spaces become available. You can also select the bin icon to deallocate from your chosen class time without having to select another.

Additionally, if you wish to find out the class times for certain subjects, or the sessions in which those subjects are offered, you can use the search bar function to find information about subjects.

In My Timetable, you can also view your timetable allocations in a calendar view. To do this, click on the Timetable button in the top right. This will show all your allocated activities in a weekly breakdown. You can use the Filter Classes button to show classes for a given session, or use the arrow buttons to jump through your calendar on a week-by-week basis.

By repeating the steps in this tutorial, you should be able to choose times for all your classes for the upcoming session. You can also use this section to add your UTS timetable to your personal calendar.

For more information, please visit the My Timetable Help Guide on the UTS website or contact the UTS Student Centre.

Before you create your timetable

Status bar and Enrolment icons

The status bar at the top provides a quick indication of your selected classes. Your class selection is complete when all subjects are ‘Allocated’ and you have no ‘Pending’ or ‘Not Allocated’ items in the status bar.

For help with the subject code terms, please refer to the timetable terms page.

Understanding Activity types

Activities appear on the left side under the subject code. Activities are named by the teaching method which the class is delivered. 

Different subjects may have different activity types. There are currently 12 activity types and these will be displayed as different colours on your personal timetable after you have selected your classes.

 Understanding Sections

A section is a group of activities.  For classes that are in a section, you can only select activities in the same grid.

Create your timetable

Step 1: Select an activity

Your subjects will appear in the ‘Enrolment’ section.  Under each subject is an activity (with an orange triangle next to it). View available class times by clicking on that subject's activity.
