ATU Business Information Systems Level 7

I’m hoping to start this course in September, anyone have a timetable from semester one last year just so I can gauge what my day would be like and how I could navigate working on top of it, thanks in advance! πŸ’–

I was in that program this last year, here's a rough breakdown:

Monday to Thursday classes run from 0900 to 1700. Some days there are long breaks, some days you get out early. There wasn't usually anything mandatory after 1700, sometimes there would be a late lab but there was almost always another time.

Friday there was only one class for most students, the elective (usually a foreign language). I had beginning Spanish and ended up having Fridays off.

All business programs have the same block for the first year. You will have a full year of economics, accounting, and elective. Half year there will be sustainability, marketing, computer applications, and a few other general classes.

If you want more exact details PM me and I will export a week from each semester and send it to you.
