Course search in Sisu
Table of contents
Course search
To search for courses, select the Search tab in the top navigation. You can search and browse courses according to the titles of the three tabs: Available courses at the higher education institution (i.e. courses for degree students), Open university selection and Cross-institutional courses.
On the first two tabs you can filter the search for example according to the teaching language or organiser (e.g. faculty or department) or curriculum period.
You can also search and browse the courses of other universities that use the Sisu system by changing the target university on the first tab. To do this, click the university’s name and the arrow icon on the left side of the search box.
On the Cross-institutional courses tab you can filter the search according to the cross-institutional network, higher education institution that organises studies or language of instruction.
To see more detailed course information, click the name or code of the course. Note! If you register for teaching or add teaching to your study calendar through the search functionality, remember to add these courses to your study plan.
Any courses you wish to complete need to be added to the primary study plan corresponding to your study right in order to ensure receiving a grade on time! If you have multiple study plans, make sure that the right plan is set as primary!
Adding courses to the course cart
You may add interesting courses to your course cart, from which you can later place them to your study plan (see the following section). To add a course to your course cart, click the Add to course cart button on the course’s row in the list of search results. To remove a course from the course cart, use the Remove from course cart button.
You can open your course cart from any other part of Sisu via the course cart icon in the top navigation.
Moving courses from the course cart to the study plan
To move courses from the course cart to your study plan, expand the blue Add to the plan view at the left side of the study plan (the Structure of studies tab). First click the arrow symbol next to the course. The system shows where in the plan you can place the course. Approve the placement in the selection assistant. The Add to the plan menu is not visible if the course is not offered in the curriculum period or the course cart is empty.
