Structures

These offerings are current at time of publication but are subject to change.

The elective interest groups are provided to assist you in choosing electives that align with your career interests. You are not limited to selection from any one group, you can select from a range of elective interest groups.

The offering of elective units is subject to sufficient student enrolment numbers and staff availability.

As a guide, when a unit is offered during the day in one semester, it will be offered during the evening the next time it is offered and vice versa (subject to staff and room availability and offering a spread of units across day and night in each semester).

All units on this list are offered in internal and external mode unless noted otherwise.
