QUT Course Structure

ED82 Course structure

PLEASE NOTE THAT SOME COURSEWORK UNITS CANNOT BE STUDIED IN THE SAME SEMESTER AS A FIELD STUDIES UNIT. If you do not follow the standard course progression (eg due to a fail grade, or non enrolment in units), you may extend your course duration. If you are out of step you should contact Student Affairs for progression advice, nm.kyle@qut.edu.au.

You must have a valid Bluecard to be eligible for Field Studies units.

Overload - The Faculty of Education permits you to overload to 60 credit points (ie standard program plus one more unit) without faculty approval only if your grade point average is 4.0 or higher. If you intend to overload you should seek progression advice from the Course Administration Officer.

Underload – The Faculty of Education permits you to underload to 36 credit points (ie 3 units in a semester) without faculty approval. If you intend to underload you should seek progression advice from the Course Administration Officer.

If you have advanced standing for a Diploma/Advanced Diploma in Children's Services (or equivalent) you will follow an alternative course progression.
