One credit unit is equivalent of fifteen (15) contact hours of classroom teaching or
forty-five (45) hours of practicals. Most of the course units in the department carry the weight of two (2) or three (3) credit units, suggesting that they are taught for
thirty (30) or forty-five (45) hours in the semester, two (2) or three (3) one-hour periods per week. In courses with strong practical component, this means that there
are fifteen (15) hours of teaching and forty- five (45) hours of practicals to qualify for
two (2) credit units or thirty (30) hours of teaching and forty-five (45) hours of practicals to qualify for three (3) credit unit
courses. However, there are fewer three (3)credit unit courses which suggest that more work is required to be done in forty-five (45)
hours per semester or the equivalent in forms of practicals and classroom teaching.
At the end of each semester, a final examination is given to bring the course to final conclusion. The final examination in each course unit is weighted 60% of the
total assessment while the Continuous Assessment (CA) component, usually two
per course unit, carries 40% of total marks for the course.
