Guidelines for Course Codes and Credits

 

  • Each course code consists of four digits together with the prefix (alphabets).

  • Prefix alphabets denote the abbreviation of the name of the degree program (DS).

  • The first digit of each course code is the corresponding semester of study (1-8).

  • The second digit represents the revision of the course, and it will increment if the course is revised.

  • The third and fourth digit represents the course number.

  • Example: The course code of DS1101 denotes the following.
