The University of Canberra is now offering a range of units to current and external students during the 2008/2009 summer semester.

Intensive Teaching Delivery

Studying over Summer is a good way to catch up on some units or get a head start on a degree. Nearly all of the units offered in the UC Summer School are taught in intensive delivery mode to minimise the affect of classes on work or family commitment over the summer period.

The full timetable is available from the Summer Semester Lecture and Tutorial Timetables page.
