Subject codes
From 1 January 1998 the faculty has implemented a new subject coding
system to reflect the new faculty structure that was introduced at the
beginning of 1997. Please note that prerequisite subject codes are shown in
their new form. A complete list of subjects with old and new codes is available
in faculty offices on each campus and on the world wide web at
http://www.buseco.monash.edu.au.
Subjects are broadly grouped by campus, and then listed within departments in
strict numerical order. The first two alphabetical characters of the subject
code indicate the departmental ownership of the subject:
- AF Accounting and Finance
- ET Econometrics and Business Statistics
- EC Economics
- MG Management
- MK Marketing
- TB Taxation and Business Regulation
- BE Business and Electronic Commerce
The third alphabetical
character indicates campus of origin:
- B Berwick
- F Caulfield
- C Clayton
- G Gippsland
- P Peninsula
- Y City
- X Multi-campus
The first digit indicates the year level at
which the subject is available and the remaining digits the subject number:
- 1xxx First-year undergraduate-level subjects
- 2xxx Second-year undergraduate-level subjects that assume prior knowledge
of the discipline or areas of study at the preceding level
- 3xxx Third-year undergraduate-level subjects that assume prior knowledge
of the discipline or areas of study at the preceding levels
- 4xxx Fourth-year level subjects offered in honours and postgraduate
diplomas that assume prior knowledge of the discipline at the preceding levels
and subjects offered in some graduate courses that build on knowledge gained in
an undergraduate degree in a related discipline and relevant employment
experience
- 5xxx Fifth-year level subjects offered in those cumulative masters
degrees that assume prior knowledge of the discipline at the preceding levels,
and subjects offered in some other masters degrees that build on knowledge
gained through previous study in a related discipline and relevant employment
experience
- 6xxx Sixth-year doctoral subjects that assume prior knowledge of the
discipline at the preceding levels
- 9xxx Accelerated learning subjects offered in graduate courses that
assume no prior knowledge of the discipline at a preceding level but building
on knowledge and skills gained through previous study in another discipline
area and/or relevant employment experience.
