Step 2 - Select Your Courses

 
Tips

• In most programs, a full course load is 30 credits for the academic year (September to April.) Normally this means five courses in each term. For the two-year Diploma in Engineering, the normal full course load is 36 credits with six courses each term. 
  • You can register for a reduced course load, but should first speak to an academic advisor to discuss the implications of doing so. Contact Academic Advising by email at @email or book an appointment with an individual advisor.
• 3-credit courses are normally offered in one term and 6-credit courses are offered over the full academic year. Most students will register in five 3-credit courses each term, while some will register in a combination of 3-credit and 6-credit courses.
  • Be sure that your final registration does not result in a course overload in either term.
  • You should be registered in a maximum of five courses each term (not including labs) unless you are a student in the engineering diploma, for which you should be registered in six courses each term. 
• Choose your most important courses first (courses required for your program) and then the optional courses you are most interested in taking.
• Select some alternatives for optional courses, in case your first choices are not available.
• Explore subjects and courses which are new or unfamiliar. You may find new interests!
