What is the UOW Handbook for?
The UOW Handbook is where students will find important information about the requirements to complete their course:
- The subjects required to be completed for their course.
- Any minors, majors or specialisations offered.
- The order in which subjects should be enrolled in.
- Any other requirements specific to their course.
You need to follow (and complete) the requirements of the Handbook from the year you commenced your course to ensure the correct study sequence is followed. For example, if you commenced your course in 2019, refer to and follow the course requirements from the 2019 Handbook for the duration of the course.
You will need to refer to the current year Handbook for subject availability for the year/session you would like to enrol in a subject.
