Students are expected to attend lectures and tutorials as scheduled.
Furthermore, students should prepare for lectures and revise post lecture to improve understanding of each week’s course module.

As a general guide, a 3 unit course requires:
Total contact hours: 3 Hrs per week x 12 weeks = 36 Hrs
Total self-guided study: 10 Hrs per week x 12 weeks = 120 Hrs
