Courses Running in the 2025/2026 Session
[ Link to Courses Running in the 2024/2025 Session ]Students are encouraged to reconfigure the information presented on this page to gather courses into particular groups [e.g. semesters, levels, points, etc]. The default order of the list is alphabetical, ordered by course title, just click on column headings to change sort order.
This page should also be used to find out the Informatics course acronym for each course, used elsewhere on the timetable or associated pages. The column labelled "Name and Link to Materials" provides a link to the Informatics OpenCourse page. The "Code/DPT" and "Code (Shadow)" columns provide a link to the centrally published course information (DPT).
Any course that does not have a hyperlink from its name in the "Name and Link to Materials" column can only be accessed on LearnUltra by enrolled users using their central University log-in.
Additional course information is available in the Course Handbook for your year, and in course presentations and survey responses.
