Notes:

1. Each course is identified by a course code which comprises a four-letter code followed by a four-digit number code.

   • The letter code denotes either the area/program of study or the course offering department. Course descriptions are arranged in alphabetical order of letter codes.
   • The first digit of the number code indicates the academic level of the course while the last three digits represent a departmental coding series.

   5=Postgraduate courses
   6=Postgraduate courses usually in the form of special topics, seminars, independent studies, reading courses or master research
   7=Postgraduate courses usually in the form of doctoral seminars or research

2. Each course is assigned a course vector which indicates the number of instructional hours required and credits to be earned. The course vector is presented in the form of [L-T-Lab:C] where

   L=Lecture hours per week
   T=Tutorial, seminar or recitation hours per week
   Lab=Laboratory or field study hours per week
   C=Number of course credits
   Normally, 1 credit is designated for 1L, 1T or 3Lab.
