Step 3
Get to know the language
You will find the following terms useful during your time at the University.
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
Handbook | The Handbook sets out the requirements for bachelor degrees, as well as the majors and units available for study each session. |
Faculty | The University is divided into five key subject areas called faculties. Each degree and unit falls under one of the five faculties. To see what faculty in which a degree or unit falls, visit the Handbook.
|
Credit | Each unit is worth a specified number of credit points. This indicates the amount of work required in the unit. Each credit point reflects 3 hours of work – so a 3 credit point unit would require 9 hours of work (in class and at home) each week. An undergraduate unit is worth 3 credit points. |
Unit | A unit is a subject studied within a degree. An undergraduate unit is worth 3 credit points. The letters represent the subject area of the unit and can be found in the Handbook. The first number represents the year level and level of understanding required for this unit.
For example, AHIS118 Latin A, is a 100 level unit for Ancient Languages. Upon the successful completion of this unit, you will have the knowledge to attempt higher level units. For example, AHIS219 Latin B. |
Prerequisite | Units or a requirement that must be met for you to enrol in a unit. |
PACE | Professional and community engagement is known as PACE. Students must complete at least one PACE unit in their degree. PACE units provide the opportunity to use academic studies in a real life context through practical experience such as an internship, community projects and fieldwork both locally or internationally. |
Session | The academic year is divided into sessions.
|
Attendance mode | You can study units on-campus or off-campus. Refer to the Handbook for a description of the attendance modes for units. |
