Academic Syllabus

The programme Yuuka is working through to move from QA into full-stack engineering on FTM. Practical-first: theory is named where it bites and deferred otherwise.

Programme syllabus — structure, prerequisites, assessment, authoring cost. Assessment handbook — coursework marking, project rubric, exam format, mark schemes, grade bands. Course standards — the 8-section chapter anatomy and exam requirements every module is audited against.

52 credits, 520 hours, 4 semesters × 15 weeks (~9 h/week). Every module page: source course with URL, weekly lecture map, FTM labs, project, reading list with free/paid marked. CS101 is built to standard — 12 chapters with primary readings, misconceptions, worked examples, 60 graded problems with solutions, and a 100-mark exam with mark scheme and grade descriptors (learning materials, exam paper). The other seven modules are first drafts: they fail the conformance audit and are being rebuilt to the CS101 standard.
