Most of our programmes operate on a 3 semester system of 4 terms (at UG semester 3 and term 4 are resit, at PG project), but some programmes (GADA) run on a 3 term system (different dates to the terms on the 3 semester system), one of the programmes I teach on has added a 4th term to create another 4 term system. The parallel GADA term schedule is hidden away we often can't even bring ourselves to speak extra 4th term's name. #StrathLife #Timetabling @UniStrathclyde
