In this article considered the solution of the problem of automated exam scheduling using a genetic algorithm. Proposed method takes into account a number of requirements, necessary to solve the exam-scheduling problem. In this work, in the process of creating initial admissible schedule of the examination session, special attention is paid to the sequence of examinations. To improve the quality of the obtained schedule, was used a genetic algorithm to minimize the number of violations of specified requirements.
