COMP8440: Enrolment Information

This course may be undertaken as either a Masters level (ANU accredited) course, or as a non-accredited (no assessment) course. The non-accredited option is lower cost, but results in no formal grade.

Enrolling at Masters level

To enrol in COMP8440 at a masters level there are four program options:

All four programs have the same course fees, and have the same pre-requisite requirements.

Fee information is available on the course fees page. Note that the fees are different for domestic and international students.

For all programs except the Masters of Computing, students must obtain a permission code from the School of Computer Science office. Requests for a permission code should be emailed to office@cs.anu.edu.au. You should include details of any experience or expertise that may be relevant for the satisfaction of the course pre-requisites.

Pre-requisites (accredited programs only)

The pre-requisites for COMP8440 are a level of familiarity with using a Unix-like operating system (such as Linux). Having some competence in at least one programming language will be an advantage.

Enrolment for MComp/MIT students

Students undertaking the course as part of a Masters of Computing or Masters of Information Technology program can enrol using ISIS.

Enrolment for Masters of Graduate Studies students

Students undertaking the course as part of a Masters of Graduate Studies can apply online , using a program name of "GRADUATE STUDIES" and a code number 7990XGRADS.

Enrolment for non-award students

Students enrolling in COMP8440 as an accredited, non-award program should submit an enrolment application form to the address listed on the form.



Enrolling as a non-accredited student

The COMP8440 course may alternatively be undertaken as a non-accredited course. This is a cheaper option (the course fee for 2010 was $1750) and involves no assessment. A certificate of completion will be awarded. The University will not provide any grading of students performance in the course.
