Course structure
The overall document for a course is the syllabus. You can find the course plan in SISU on SU's website. This document, the course outline, sometimes called the course description, clarifies how we carry out the course in practice. The course description should provide good guidance, but is not comprehensive. Further clarifications in oral or written form are given by the teacher during the lessons. Do not hesitate to ask the teacher if question marks would remain before the implementation of various tasks. To see which teachers teach the course, and for information about the schedule and examination times, see further under "Schedule".
