@amuzeshi A little bit unnatural! I would say:
Over the past semester, I did not have very much time to look into the research topic because the course required a lot of work on other assignments.

@wrangler In this sentence, a student points out that the semester has been involving due to the courses (not only one course). Therefore, he couldn't take enough time to work on his thesis. With this description, do you like to revise your answer? Thank you.
