Generating Course Outlines from the CTS

Course Coordinators are required to provide the students in each course undertaken at the University of Newcastle with a Course Outline. See Policy on Course Outlines

Course Outlines must be consistent with information on the Course Tracking System (CTS) and can mostly be automatically generated from the CTS by clicking on the following link

http://webapps.newcastle.edu.au/CTS

Steps:

1. Enter your Username and Password to gain access to the CTS

2. From the Reports menu click the Course Outline link.

3. Enter the desired search criteria (Term and Subject Area minimum required) and select the Report Type of Course Handout or Full Proposal to see all fields. Click the Search button.

4. To view the information on the screen click the course name link (eg INFO1010). To save the document as a word processor file select the Save RTF link. Clicking the Save RTF link will allow you to download a copy of the outline to your own PC. This document provides the basis of the Course Outline whereby material can be added in line with Course Outline policy.
