Unit of Study

Unit of Study - junior

Junior units of study are first year units, and can be recognised by their unit codes, which all begin with a 1: for example, SCLG 1001 (Introduction to Sociology 1). First year students should only enrol in 1000-level units. There are, however, some exceptions, including students enrolling in the BA (Advanced) (Honours) degree, or those with previous study in foreign languages or who are transferring from another university (see a student adviser about advanced standing or applying for credit).

Unit of Study - senior

Senior units of study are second and third year subjects, and can be recognised by their unit codes, which begin with either a 2 or a 3, for example HSTY2676 (Australia and the World) or GCST3604 (Cultural Theory). These units of study will count towards the credit points required for a Table A major.
