Practical Exam Information

All students should be aware of the General Information on examinations, including, Alternative Arrangements (for students requiring additional support), Times and Dates (including Timetables, Standard Examination Dates, Exam Venues, Reporting a Clash and Religious Observance), Assessment and Results, Preparation (information on Calculators, Mobile Phones, Dictionaries, UCards) and information for International Students (regarding examinations overseas). You can access this information here

The Department of Mechanical Engineering has also created a booklet on 'Handy Notes for Invigilated Examinations' which is available to you via Blackboard.

For Visiting Students, if you are only here for the one semester and have to return home before the University of Sheffield (UoS) exam period starts then we can help to organise your examination at your home University. Please contact the Learning & Teaching Manager, Mr Jason Hawley (jason.hawley@sheffield.ac.uk) with a name and email address of someone at your home University who can assist with proctoring your exam. The Learning & Teaching Manager will then contact your home University to discuss a suitable date for them to receive the examination paper(s) and to arrange a date /time for the exam(s). The exam(s) will be arranged as close as possible to the UoS date and time, but within the home University's working hours.

Students can also watch this informal video on the do's and don'ts for their examinations - Your Exam - Don't Lose it!
