Specific degrees and their requirements
I have grouped these by the type of category of programme, as currently done on homesite. Although this creates one more layer of filing it groups like/similar programmes together, including the many of the common nested/grouped programmes.

Information applicable to all or most programmes
Supplementary information (add to section with same name following
...
each Programme Requirements section)
- When planning the courses that make up a programme (if there are choices) particular care should be given to prerequisite courses, being those required before you can do a certain higher level course.
- Disclaimer that the calendar is the authoritative source of programme requirements and details.
- If in doubt seek advice.
Tool tips (add to section with same name on each degree page)
- Elective course: Any course from this universityFor the first mention of each course code on the page: Subject name (as per GUS p.123)
Thoughts and questions about the approach to all degree pages
- Every mention of every course will have the course code and the name (i.e. we won't ever use the course code on its own for page content).
- All these course instances will link to Course Finder for the outline for the course.
- For the structured degrees I have stated explicitly (on a points or course by level basis) the elective requirements, which would enable the user to avoid summing all the course points to check against the degree rules.
- I am reluctant to do this for the more flexible degrees (due to the proportion of choice), meaning the user will have to. Is this okay?
- Bullets notes under the numbered requirements are suggested content to supplement/surround the requirements. Some are quotes from GUSpublications, others are the essence of the idea for the content people to write up.writers to handle as they see fit
