Session 3

Get back on track or get ahead with Session 3

Studied fewer units this year because of COVID?

Keen to finish your studies and graduate?

Session 3 is your chance to catch up or get ahead.

How it works

You can study one or two units over summer and have those units ticked off your study plan before the next year even starts.

Session 3 is taught in a “condensed mode” so the session runs over a shorter period but you study the same amount of content as you would in a normal session. You’ll just have more classes/content in a week per unit than in a normal session (that’s how you fit it all in – condensed style!).

And this year there’s more!

We know COVID hit some of you hard so we’re offering more units in Session 3. We want to help you achieve your educational goals and for some of you, Session 3 will be just what you need to get back on track or get ahead.

The details

Session 3 typically runs from late in November to end of January the next year. Offered units fall in two main groups. The two groups have different delivery dates, with the key difference being the number of teaching weeks, the recess and exam periods, so make sure you check the dates below for the units you want to enrol in.

Further details on each unit can be found in the Handbook.

Class Formats

Group 1 units

Students are expected to attend the classes for which they are registered in timetable, eg. day, block etc

Group 2 units

Instead of a lecture/tutorial format, classes will be taught in small groups. Students are expected to attend three to seven (depending on the unit) live-stream online and/or face-to-face seminar type lessons each week over six weeks and actively participate to complete interactive class tasks and individual activities in small classes. This also means that when you register, you are registering for all classes within the stream that you choose. For example, if you choose "Seminar 1", you need to attend all classes within that stream to access all class materials and assessment information.

Please also note that you will need to be available to attend classes during the S3 recess period from 20 December to 24 December and during the exam period from 17 January to 21 January.

Key dates for S3 2021

Enrolment and class registration will be open on 4 November 2021.
