As a guide, full-time students should plan to undertake eight courses per year and external students, who are in employment, a maximum of six courses per year, with a minimum of four courses per year. This is exclusive of any Semester 3 enrolments. Students wishing to enrol in more than four courses per semester or more than two courses in Semester 3 must obtain permission from the Director of Undergraduate Studies.
Courses are normally offered on-campus and externally in the same semester. If a course is offered twice in one year, the second offering will normally be on an external basis only.
