Need to do one of them next semester (semester one 2015) as a gen ed. Want something that is not too difficult to get 75+ in, takes minimal time during the semester to spend time on, uses more maths, has no essays, looks somewhat interesting, has a minimal amount of assessment tasks and can...

I would advise that you pick a major for the time being that you are most likely to lead into. I'll explain why. When you pick the flexible program, you do your first semester with the generic lot of courses which every engineer does. In second semester you can do a few electives (usually two...

Make sure you have a tax file number when you enrol to defer to HECS. Other info you need is standard like full name, address, date of birth, etc.

I don't know much about USyd's School of Computing, but UNSW's school is pretty awesome. They have prizes all the time for outstanding students. As a student you get access to a server where you can code, test the code and run it. The building is quite new and the school has a good structure...

Nah a Mech Eng wouldn't do that if they came from UNSW. (endofderail.jpg take to squar3 thread pls)

Depends what they did at UTS really. I had a mate transfer from USyd to UNSW and got only 36 units of credit out of the 48 he did at USyd to be accredited towards his program at UNSW. So he had to do a few more courses to catch up.

If units are not specified, then assume mm (come on you are a Mechanical Engineer, I'm an EE so expect mm or some imperial crap, whichever is more appropriate for the situation).

Not sure if I've grown but I think I am 1750.

The work required to lift the satellite to the orbit is just the change in potential energy. That is, W = \Delta U = mg(h_{final}-h_{Earth}) To place a satellite into the orbit, the satellite must have a sufficient orbital speed to keep it in that orbit. Hence, as InteGrand said: This is an...

In terms of transferring into UNSW or USyd, you have to refer to external tranfer programs at those universities and what requirements are required or how competitive it can get. Also, through external transfers you have to consider how many credit units you are accredited for the university...

I answered your question on job prospects here: http://community.boredofstudies.org/585/engineering/332493/engineering-job-prospects.html Now career paths in EE are quite broad. You can end up in many different types of environments as an EE, including laboratory, industrial (factory-like)...

Well looking at GradStats: http://www.graduatecareers.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/GCAGradStats2013.pdf http://www.graduatecareers.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/GCA_GradStats_2014.pdf Engineering in general took a massive hit this year by the looks of it. As an Electrical Engineer...

Nah the newsagency buys them and sells them to attract more customers to buy from them. Tbh bus passes are easier as then students will abuse transport to other places other than school. With bus passes, at least the driver can check if you are jigging school/home or not. That's pretty much...

If you don't buy a mymulti for that week, then what you can do is buy a concession mybus2 travel ten for $14.40. I always have one of them in my wallet in handy for whenever I use a bus. _________________________ If I'm only going into uni once or twice a week (especially during my holidays)...

Can take 30 minutes. Can take 1 hour. Really the examiner has to make sure they have tested you on enough items first. Also depends on the examiner as I know some people who took like 20 minutes for some odd reason (not sure how because mine was so long in comparison and it wasn't even heavy...

I think with youth allowance, if you have something like $11000 in your bank account then you stop getting paid. Also, you have to declare your scholarship when applying otherwise if they find it suspicious to be getting regular payments and they find out, you might end up having to pay some...

Wow Australia is very laggy in comparison to other countries then...

Wow that is so much better now.

The 3 bonus points is not for highest ATAR at your school. It's for AAA acceptance. HSC Plus is capped at 5. EAP is also capped at 5. http://www.unsw.edu.au/future-students/domestic-undergraduate/your-application/bonus-points AAA is 3. EAS is capped at 10...

It's quite manageable to work part-time and have extra-curriculars and be a full-time engineering student coping alright. Study on top of contact hours is probably something between 10 to 20 hours per week if you want to get great-ish marks. In terms of how combined programs work, your contact...
