 ## Bachelor's Programme Structure
 Most students need between six and seven semesters to finish their bachelor's degree, followed by a further four to five semesters for the master's degree.
 For more information on the studies and things to keep in mind, see [here](./semester-planning).
+
+All first year courses (and most later courses, with some exceptions) follow a structure of having:
+- Some lectures (denoted `V` for "Vorlesung" in VVZ, EduApp and MyStudies)
+- Some exercise classes (denoted `U` for "Übungsstunde" in VVZ, EduApp and MyStudies)
+- (Occasionally) some kind of project work (denoted `A` for "Arbeit")
+- (Rarely, mostly GESS and Seminar) Group classes (denoted `G` for "Gruppenstunde", similar to High school classes)
+
+In the first semester, you have one course with an `A`, which is Algorithms and Datastructures (short A&D) where the CodeExpert tasks are the project work.
+This of course means that the effort needed to put into CodeExpert can be quite a bit more than the normal assignments.
