Course Duration
The course duration, or enrolment period, is the number of weeks from the course start to the course end date.

When you start your course, you will have a study guide to follow that outlines what topics to aim to work on each week.

For many courses the study guide will be based on teaching weeks, which is shorter than course duration. This is to allow time at the end of the course for assessment marking, extensions and exams.

Withdrawal dates are based on the course duration. Learn more about withdrawals and course transfers.

Workload

Workload is an estimate of how many hours you need to study each week for the course. A course’s workload is calculated using:

Number of credits times 10 divided by the number of teaching weeks for the course.

The hours are rounded up to the nearest whole number.

Workload is only a guide – you may need more or less time each week. You might also need to allow more time when you have assessments due or exams.
