Semester Courses (Subjects)

At JCU, a subject is the study of a particular topic and is the basic building block of a qualification. A typical subject includes lectures; assessments such as assignments, essays, reports, tests and exams; and either tutorials or laboratories.

A large number of our subjects have more than one course code, reflecting their availability at both the undergraduate and postgraduate student level. Students eligible for the postgraduate subject option receive varied content and are assessed at a higher level.
