General Hints

• Check that you satisfy the assumed knowledge and prerequisites for any courses you plan to take.
• Preparing a timetable plan for both semesters will save you time. The easiest way to do this is to use the Timetable Planner (doc 52kB) and the Course Planner so that you can schedule your studies. Note your lecture details as these times will not change. Then note a couple of suitable tutorial details for each course.
• Enrol as early as possible to secure your preferred classes, as enrolments are on a first-in basis.

24 Course Degree Structure

From 2008 the courses within the Bachelor of Commerce, Economics, Finance and Business Information Technology degrees will become 24-course degrees. This will be done by changing the unit value of Level II and Level III courses to 3 units.

The new 24-course degree will be;

Level I - Eight 3 unit courses (no change from 20-course degree)

Level II - Eight 3 unit courses (changed from six, 4 unit courses) - commencing 2009

Level III - Eight 3 unit courses (changed from six, 4 unit courses) - commencing 2010

Total units for the 3-year degrees will remain at 72 units

The reasons for the change include:

• Increased flexibility for students
• To align the structure of these Adelaide degrees with those of the other G08 Australian universities
• Improved ability to include study from a number of disciplines
• An increase in the courses offered in some disciplines

How does this affect continuing students?

The changes to the degrees should not affect continuing students, provided you meeting the following conditions;

• commenced your degree in 2007 or prior
• complete your second year courses before 2009 and
• complete third year courses before 2010

Frequently Asked Questions

• Do I enrol into a tute or a lecture?
• Can I swap my tute time?
• Where do I find class numbers?

Which is the correct study plan for me (undergraudates)?

If you are a continuing undergraduate student, you must follow the study plan outlined in the 'continuing students' section; students commencing their study in 2008 should follow the study plan in the 'students commencing in 2008' section.

How do I receive credit for courses completed at another tertiary institution?

You will need to complete an application for transfer credit and attach a copy of your transcript (original or certified copy) and the detailed course outline of the relevant courses. Application forms for Transfer credit are available from the Economics Office.

Do I enrol into a tute or a lecture?

When enrolling in Economics courses you will be enrolling into a tute that will automatically place you into the associated lecture. There is an exception. Where there is a repeat lecture stream the above is not automatic. You will need to select the lecture class number after entering the tute class number.

Can I swap my tute time?

You can only swap tutorials up until the end of the second week of each semester and this must be done by you on-line. Swapping tutes means that you should first check there is space in the tute you have elected to swap to, then you should immediately drop yourself from the tute you are in (this will completely delete your enrolment in this course) and immediately add yourself into the new tute. If possible, have a few tutes that you are able to swap into.

Where do I find class numbers?

The Course Planner allows you to search all courses that are scheduled in 2006, view all of the classes for each course and to plan your timetable BEFORE you enrol. You can search and view class details for courses one by one or you can add courses to a cart and build up a list of all classes for your courses. You can also print this information if you wish.
