The timetable

So another week has passed. This is Week 1 of the autumn semester. We have started classes with a refresher on Discrete Mathematics, but the full timetable will begin only in Week 2. My timetable is arranged in what we would call "blocks" in TP. I will be taking 2 subjects in "Block 1", from Weeks 2 - 4. with open assessments for these subjects in Weeks 5-6. "Block 2" is only one week in Week 7, where we'll have a intensive "Practical S/W Engineering and Project Management" mdoule, and a Java refresher course. "Block 3" is from Weeks 8 - 10, where we will be taking two exam-able subjects. The exams are in Week 1 of the Spring semester in January next year.

So this semester will be quite intensive, averaging about 24 contact hours per week.

The Spring semester, starting first week of January, will be less intensive, where we will be doing our "electives". The summer semester and vacation will be for the project and dissertation.
