Coordinator:

No face-to-face lectures in this unit, but only practicals (starting from week 2).

For unit inquiries, you can email the coordinator directly. A staff member is typically teaching multiple units, so make sure you start the subject line with "300165 SAP" and then include a relevant subject. For any unit related inquiries, you need to use your WSU student email account.

In addition, the coordinator may use emails to address the unit related issues (clarifying administrative policies, providing hints to practical activities, presenting extra/supplementary materials for the unit studies). It is pivotal for students to read emails carefully.
