About 1000, 2000 and 3000-level units of study

What are 1000-level, 2000-level, 3000-level or 4000-level units?

  • 1000-level units of study have learning outcomes of a foundational or introductory nature and are designed for students in the first year of a Bachelor degree or attempting a discipline area for the first time.
  • 2000-level units of study have learning outcomes which assume prior foundational or introductory study and are designed for students who have completed the first year of a Bachelor degree.
  • 3000-level units of study have learning outcomes designed for students in the third year of a bachelor degree. In 144 credit point Bachelor degrees, such units should enable students to demonstrate learning outcomes at a level expected for those completing a Bachelor degree at AQF level 7
  • 4000-level units of study have learning outcomes at the advanced or honours level and are designed for students who have already achieved learning outcomes for a 144 credit point pass-level Bachelor degree or who are completing the final year of a 192 credit point Bachelor degree.
