NEW for 2020-21:

Looking for GEOG (Geography) or RELIGST (Religious Studies) courses?

  • The subject ENVSOCTY has replaced GEOG
  • The subject SCAR has replaced RELIGST

Please use the revised subject area when searching for courses. Most courses use the same code but with the revised subject area (e.g. GEOG 3MA3 is now known as ENVSOCTY 3MA3).


Please note, when searching courses by “Code or Number”, an asterisk (*) can be used as a wildcard character to return mass results. For example, a “Code or Number” search of ” 2* ” can be entered returning all level II courses.
