Description of Units
Southern Cross University Student Handbook 2013
Terminology Guide
Information regarding unit descriptions is correct as at January 18, 2013. For the most up-to-date and accurate information, students are referred to the University’s online Schedule of Units detailing unit availabilities, requisite and enrolment conditions. The Schedule of Units can be found at: scu.edu.au/scheduleofunits. The University reserves the right to change the content of, or withdraw, any unit which it offers. Candidates should also note that limitations on enrolment may be imposed on some units.
The information provided in the unit descriptions is in the following categories.
USING THE SCHEDULE OF UNITS
Instructions on how to use the Schedule of Units are included at the above web address. Abbreviations used in the Schedule of Units are detailed in the opening pages of the Schedule, as are the School Codes and the abbreviations used for Pre-requisites, Co-requisites and Anti-requisites. The Schedule of Units changes as enrolments are modified, so for instance if a unit did not attract sufficient enrolments, and the availability was removed from the Schedule of Units for that study period then that unit would not be included in the report. Any enrolment restrictions are also noted. At the start of the Unit Descriptions a small diagram has been included to familiarize students with the Schedule of Units. If you require assistance to use the Schedule of Units please call Student Services Directorate 02 6620 3444. Staff can then assist with your enquiry.
The Head of the School or Director of the College offering the unit may waive a pre-requisite where it can be satisfactorily demonstrated a candidate has a background of study sufficient to undertake the unit successfully. Any candidate who considers sufficient grounds can be presented for a waiver of pre-requisite should present the case to the Head of School/Director of College concerned or nominee.
