The Andrew Calendar service is the university-wide calendar management and scheduling system. You can use your personal calendar to schedule group meetings, keep track of assignment due dates and manage tasks that you need to complete. The real power of Andrew Calendar comes from its ability to share meetings with other Carnegie Mellon users, including a group-scheduling feature that can find open timeslots across multiple users’ calendars.
Depending on your personal preference, you can download and install the Oracle Calendar desktop client software or simply use the web-based client to access the Andrew Calendar.
Note: The course materials, homework assignments and exams will only assess your knowledge of the web-based client.
