To avoid making changes to core code, your best option will probably be to create a custom course format - clone the Topics format (for example) and add your extra field in there.
You may be better reposting that as a separate question in the Courses and Formats forum as it is a separate issue to your themes question

Thanks for you answer. I attached where I want to add custom field.
Sometimes asking for a specific solution at a technical level is not the correct question as you might be surprised by alternatives you have not thought of. Therefore, why do you want to add a custom field there?
I made a custom course block. I want a field where different course icon can be uploaded. Therefor I need to add a custom field in course settings.
My objective is to avoid hack core code. I looked for code under course/format, didn't find any code for field there.
Hi,
Where do you want the course icon to show up? In the course header?
Did you know you can add an image in the Course summary when you set up a course? Or you can add it later if the course is already established. To do this you select Edit settings when you are in the Course itself.
That image can then be made to show up on the course page. So there is no need to make a new field.
Hope that helps?

COOL!!!
I add icon by code myself now. I want to upload icon through course settings page. So admin can change the icon himself.
Want to add that custom field( for icon upload) by plugin or something like that. Not by hacking core code.
If anyone have suggestion. Thank you.

Good work...Excelent!
if you just want to add links to these two options you can do that as a Label in Main Menu
To get to the Main Menu you need to:
That is assuming that is all you wanted to do?
