Courses

Like the part-time on-campus program, the Distance program is a 40 unit program conducted over the course of a full year. The courses in the program have Part 1 in Semester 1 and Part 2 in Semester 2. While you are expected to take both parts of a course, there is provision to change a course at the beginning of Semester 2. If you want to change courses for Semester 2, you need to discuss with the Open Foundation Co-ordinator or the Executive Officer of the Centre.
