It can be difficult to match up calendar dates and academic week numbers as the year progresses.
Charlotte Dodson, Senior Lecturer in Drug Discovery has created a University of Bath academic year calendar for 2024/25 in a format which can easily be imported into Outlook. The calendar contains one entry per week, with an all-day event on the Monday with the title ‘Week 2 – semester’ (or whatever is appropriate).
Import instructions are as follows:
- save this attachment somewhere (e.g. your desktop, H-drive, temp files)
- in Outlook, go to your calendar and then to File -> Open & Export -> Import/Export
- select ‘Import from another programme or file’ and then ‘Comma Separated Values’
- browse to wherever you saved the message attachment and select it. Choose the remove/allow/ignore duplicates option that you want
- select the destination folder as Calendar (this is the default if you were in Calendar to begin with) and then click ‘Next’
- optional: select ‘Map Custom Fields’ and check that it says something sensible – it should be sensible by default)
- click finish
