Engineering, second round (1 Viewer)

[fc1302]

Hello all,

This is my first thread!!

Anyway back to the thread question... So we have got our first round offers.

I got accepted into my first option; Industrial design in UNSW. Problem is, this was my first option cause it was placed wrongly by myself. What i would like to study is civil engineering.

Therefore, i have to change my preferences to civil engineering and wait for the next round.

I have two questions.

1. Is it likely i would get into engineering in UTS or UNSW (my uai was 85.85, enough for the UTS cut-off but below UNSW cut-off)

2. Secondly, which Uni should i go for? UTS, UNSW or USYD? Please don't start arguments , i just want a plain answer and a simple explaination.

Thanks in advance!!

Hi,

What exactly does flexible first year mean?

Hi,

What exactly does flexible first year mean?

Because practically all engineering students do similar electives in first year it won't matter what major you decide (Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, etc) until second year.

 

[fc1302]

Oh ok...

But does anyone have suggestions to which uni i should go for? and why? (Which is better in the long run?)

 

[Nevermore]

UTS if your going for engineering, it has a good reputation for engineering

@Nevermore

Thanks for you advice!

Is there anyone who wishes to voice there opinion?

*damn should have set up a poll

Go Usyd....better "allround experience" and better prestige that comes along with it.

engineering <> prestiage

What musk said.

Unlike, say, Law (which depends on prestige and a good school with an expnsive library), engineering is purely technical. In the end; it will depend on the effort that a student puts in at any uni.

I'm not going to defame another university, but if you want another person's opinion, here is it

hey the university has chosen a normal current student to represent them.
it is by coincidence that i really do happen to love Sydney Uni, and I believe in their education and I love waking up and going to uni.
If i felt it was false, I wouldn't be saying what i'm saying.

i don't defame other universities,
firstly, because i'm not a smuck
and secondly, because I have no right to! I have no authority to compare universities. I'm only doing ONE engineering degree at ONE university.
i'm not going to defame something i have little/no idea about.

It's called "being genuine" and "minding my own business".
