Suggested Full Time Course Plan
The following are standard patterns of enrolment or pathways for candidates studying on a full-time or part-time basis. They take into account unit pre-requisite, co-requisite and timetabling requirements. Candidates can each year choose to study less units than the full-time pattern or more units than the part-time pattern, but if doing so should use these standard patterns as guides as to how best to structure their studies.
For candidates studying Full-Time = 48 cps per year or 24 cps per semester. This equates to a workload of approximately 40-48 hours per week.
| Year | Notes | Semester 1 | Semester 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | In their first year candidates should enrol in these 5 Core Units and 1 Elective Unit at 100-level towards the BSc component and these 2 Core Units towards the BLaws component. MATH101 or MATH102 may be completed in lieu of MATH120 or STAT100. A strong background in Mathematics is required for MATH101 or MATH102. |
