Course unit selection fair, 2023-24

Explore your course unit options for the coming academic year! You can now access the SALC student intranet undergraduate course unit selection webpage; this includes information on programme structures and instructions on how to select course units. If you have any questions, please email our Undergraduate Programme Director, Kamran Karimullah.

Please note that course unit selection opens the week commencing 21 August. Key dates such as teaching periods and vacation dates can be found in the Academic Calendar.

Course unit fair videos, below: The course code itself tells you the year/l l and the semester in which the course is running. For example, RELT30712 tells you that the course is year/level 3 and runs in semester 2. Bear in mind that some of the specific details discussed in the video (eg assessment, lecturer, semester) may have changed; the course code beneath the video gives the correct information. Note that the size of the video clips below can be increased by clicking on the YouTube logo, once they start playing.
