Our courses

All of the courses in the IS major are administered using moodle and that is almost always your best place to ask questions. If you have general questions about this major please use our forum - we will respond promptly. Generally first year lectures are held in MTB L2 but not during all of the assigned timetable slots. Our offices are on the Second Floor of MTB -- Room H219 is a good place to start.
