Where to find your timetable

How to subscribe to your timetable and resolve any issues

This article will explain how to access your University timetables, where to find buildings and what to do if you have any issues.

Accessing your Timetable

  • If you're a new student, you'll get your timetable two weeks before teaching starts
  • If you're a returning student, you'll receive it four weeks before teaching starts

To access your timetable you will need to log into our CMIS GO Timetabling service using your University email and password.

You will also be able to find a link to your timetable on the MyPort home page along with other useful information. 

Go to your timetable

The above video shows a typical calendar and how to navigate through your timetable.

Induction timetable example

The image below is an event that has been scheduled during an induction.

This is an example of an induction week timetable.
  • The green block at the top of the square shows all the courses and years of study who will be attending the event, it also includes which Teaching block it's in (teaching blocks are similar to terms or semesters).
  • The grey block tells you the time of your event/teaching session, the module code, course (or courses, because sometimes it includes students from more than one course) and then the location i.e building and room number. In most cases it will also include the name of the academic member of staff leading that session.
  • You may have multiple rooms attached to your induction event, if this is the case you will be informed which room to attend prior to the induction session.

Module timetable example

Understanding your timetable

This is similar to the Induction timetable event but also shows:

  • The module title i.e M24465 Economics for Business
  • Your group information will also be displayed 

    (some modules have large numbers of students, so we split them into groups for a better experience) i.e as in this example GP02.

  1. Open a browser on your phone
  2. Navigate to the Timetabling service (https://timetabling.port.ac.uk/Web/Timetable)
  3. You will prompted to log in using your University username (UP123456) and password
  4. You may then be promoted for multifactor authentication
  5. You will then be able to view your timetable

 If you’re already signed into your personal Google account, you might be prompted to choose an account. Select your university account to view your timetable.

CMIS Go should be your first point of reference for checking your timetable, however you can subscribe your timetable via Google Calendar and add it as a secondary calendar. 

It can take a minimum of eight hours for Google calendar to update. You will also need to refresh your calendar regularly, otherwise you could be looking at an out-of-date version of your timetable

 

Your timetable will tell you where to go for each class. If you need help locating a building the following articles will help:

 

  • Your timetable for 1st attempt assessments (May to June exams) will be available in April
  • Your timetable for 2nd attempt assessments (July exams) will be available in June

You'll receive your exam timetable in the same format as your term time calendar.

Find out more about your exams and assessments.

The University tries not to change timetables after they've been published but sometimes it's unavoidable - you should check your online timetable regularly. 

If you have problems with your timetable, or it's incorrect, check with the MyPort Information Hub that you're registered for the correct modules and the correct amount of credits in the Student Records system. The MyPort Hub will work with the central timetabling unit to investigate further.

In the meantime, keep checking your online timetable until the issue is resolved on the system.
