What does “Topic” at the end of a course title mean?
“Topic” in a course description means that when that course is offered during a semester, a specific “topic” is chosen, so the course itself varies. While a student cannot take the same topic (and thus course-code) twice, s/he can indeed take two separate topics at different times in their program. Only the topic(s) listed in the semester timetable are offered (The Academic Calendar lists all topics that have been taught under that course heading).
