2. What do ‘0.5 credit points’ and ‘1.0 credit points’ mean?
At Bond University, each subject is graded as either a full unit (1.0 credit point) or a half unit (0.5 credit points). This is based on the number of lecture hours and the amount of work required to complete the subject. Obviously, full units require considerably more effort and take longer than half units.

They normally require two major assignments to be completed, as well as an examination.
