This section should elaborate on the brief description and include additional information on the course.

Course Convenors are encouraged to include sub-sections such as 'Contact Summary' and 'Campus specific arrangements'.

For research-based projects of less than 30CP offered in coursework masters degrees, and where the supervision is group or tutorial based, the roles and responsibilities of both students and staff are to be set out explicitly in the course profile, and provided to examiners. This information should include, where appropriate, the number of hours of group supervision students can expect to receive.

Contact Summary

Course Convenors are required to describe the activities to be undertaken by students eg. lectures, tutorials, seminars, practical classes, work-integrated learning activities, field placements etc. Convenors are required to include clear statements of the expectations on students, such as which activities are compulsory and which are optional. Mandatory requirements for the course should be specified, including attendance and participation requirements. The Contact summary is to be consistent with information provided in section 4.1 Learning Activities.

Campus-specific arrangements (optional)

In the case of courses taught on more than one campus this section may be used to clarify campus-specific information to students. Convenors are encouraged to include a statement such as:

Throughout this course profile there will be campus specific information - please make sure that you refer to the information that is RELEVANT TO THE CAMPUS WHERE YOU ARE ENROLLED.
