Using the university timetable

Select your class times to work in with your school timetable when the USC class timetable is released.

For most courses you will need to attend a lecture and a tutorial each week, which is approximately 3 to 5 contact hours per week.

Some courses are different, for example:

• Design courses — for most design courses you are required to attend a lecture and a computer workshop (as opposed to a tutorial).
• Language courses — each week you are required to attend one lecture and a set of tutorials, which often amounts to 5 hours of contact (class) time. On the timetable, each set of tutorials has a class number and may consist of 2 or 3 tutorial times. You will need to attend each of the tutorials listed under the class number.
• Science courses — for most science courses you are required to attend a lecture each week and a tutorial or laboratory session (these alternate each week during semester). Class time for science courses often amounts to 4 contact hours per week.

You may be able to change your lecture and tutorial times if they do not suit your school timetable, or if your circumstances have changed.
