# The engineering student week

URL: https://gocutline.com/templates/engineering-student-week/

A weekly schedule for engineering students: lectures from 09:00, problem sets from 14:00 on weekdays, labs on Tuesday afternoon and a project block on Saturday morning.

## Why it works
- **Problem sets begin the day they are given,** so you can still ask for help.
- **A fixed project block** keeps group work moving.
- **Saturday afternoon and Sunday stay open** for when something takes longer.

## Make it yours
- Group project? Use a [shared calendar](https://gocutline.com/shared-calendars/) to find the time.
- Learning to code on the side? Add a [learning block](https://gocutline.com/playbooks/learn-anything-30-min/).

## Questions

**How much should engineering students study outside class?**
Plan fixed blocks for problem sets, then adjust by how far they get. This plan has about 15 hours a week.
