Further Information
Course units are normally available to students on all programmes (subject to any restrictions in the programme and to prerequisites) except that symbols * and ** indicate that the course unit is not be available to students who have taken or plan to take other certain other course units (see below). Course descriptions for all courses should be on the website by the end of August. Course descriptions give details of prerequisites.
Timetable
Course units in each semester will be timetabled in ten groups A to J and these are indicated on the list. Student should assume that as far as possible two course units which are shown in different groups will not clash whereas two course units in the same group will almost certainly clash. MATH3002 Problems Course has two lunchtime sessions and MATH30071 Career Management Skills usually takes up one afternoon. A provisional timetable will be posted on the School website during August.
