• This document provides information on course requirements to assist you in completing your 2008 re-enrolment. The information has been updated from 2007 course information to include any unit changes made during the 2007 academic review cycle. As a result of the review, new units may have been added, units withdrawn, unit content updated, unit titles, codes, semester of offer changed etc. See 2008 Units Catalogue for details (codes, titles, content, prerequisites, restrictions).

• Please take a moment to look at requirements for your course as this information will help you select units for study in 2008.

• Note that changes have been made to several undergraduate courses for 2008 as an outcome of the recent Academic Renewal Project. New students beginning studies in 2008 will be governed by the 2008 course rules. Current students who are continuing in their course in 2008 may continue under existing rules or may apply to change to the 2008 rules of their course if they wish.
