Course Costs and Equipment/ Stationery requirementsWe are requesting a voluntary payment of $50 to go towards running a high quality course with a good range of ingredients to enhance the practical experience for students in the Food Technology programme. We believe that students really value the learning enhancements that this payment provides.
It is strongly advised that students have their own container weekly for practical lessons.
We aim to enable every student to have the course that they prefer, however, some courses have limited places or pre-requisits that may restrict the student's choice.
