Calendar 2005–06

Full-time Undergraduate Studies 205 Programmes The courses under the various programmes are listed on pp.206–292. Explanatory notes on codes and signs used A course code comprises three letters of the alphabet, three Arabic numerals, and one numeral/letter. The first three letters stand for the subject (e.g. CHI, ENG, BIO, stand for Chinese, English, and Biology respectively). The first numeral stands for the level of study. Undergraduate courses are coded 1 to 4 while postgraduate courses are coded 5 to 9. The numeric code starting with 0 stands for a course by student-orientated teaching (STOT). Normally, lower level courses should be taken before upper level courses. However, for the sake of flexibility, most courses are open to students of all years of attendance subject to the satisfactory fulfilment of pre-requisite and co- requisite requirements. In fulfilling the total unit requirements of a major or minor programme, students should follow a prescribed study scheme and complete the required and elective courses. Please refer to The Chinese University of Hong Kong Student Handbook for details of unit requirements and study schemes.
