The University’s academic structure for undergraduate programmes which provides opportunities for students to broaden their learning experience and progress at a pace most suited to their individual needs while maintaining high academic standards, is based on the Academic Unit System.
The main feature of the Academic Unit System is the use of academic units (AU) for measuring academic workload.
