● For laboratory courses, course contents shall have list of lab exercises instead of units.

● Laboratory coursecanalsohave seperate textbooks, reference books

● Laboratory course- should havefew guidelines for conductionor a seperate manual

● A separate lab instructor’s manual would be preferred of lab courses
