The traditional hand operated method of time table is very time consuming and usually ends up with various classes clashing either at same room or with same teachers having more than one class at a time which is being resolved by Automated time table scheduling. This project introduces a practical timetabling approach capable of taking care of both hard and soft constraints required specially for preparing time table in colleges with large number of students and limited resources like class-rooms or labs. The automated time table scheduling provides easier ways for teachers and student to view their timetable once they are finalized over the application, having individual login id and passwords, and also some staff usually takes the previous year’s timetable and modify it but still it is a tedious job to incorporate changes. To overcome all these problems we propose to make an automated system. This paper also presents an evolutionary algorithm (EA) based approach to solving a heavily constrained university timetabling problem which has been used in other projects also.
