    USYD or UNSW for Engineering (mech) and Arts?

    Since they're both about the same, just go to wherever is more convenient.

    USYD Chatter Thread 2016

    Re: USYD Chatter Thread - Semester 1 2016 So the entire fine arts school just moved to UNSW?

    Electrical Engineering or Software Engineering/Computer Science

    There is less maths in CS, although you might still have to do discrete mathematics later on.

    Electrical Engineering or Software Engineering/Computer Science

    They're actually 'core electives' that may be counted as core subjects (e.g. you can pick a computing elective or an electromagnetics elective and whichever you choose will count towards your degree as an core-subject), both USYD and UNSW do this. Generally, just have a look a the course...

    Electrical Engineering or Software Engineering/Computer Science

    EE and CS and SE overlap heaps. At USYD EE, you will have to do a least at least 3 semesters with core programming subjects with the option to do more with stuff ranging to object orientated to data structures and unix. The MATLAB is mainly integrated into calculation subjects.

    Engineering at USYD vs UNSW

    Everyone has their own 'secret toilet' lmao, take some time and you'll find one for sure. In general, Fisher library toilets are pretty clean.

    Engineering at USYD vs UNSW

    Is it the one near the geoscience school? I have no idea what it's for but I doubt it's for ChemE. ChemE school is the first building you see when you go to campus (assuming you're traveling from Redfern Station), which again, looks like a typical public school building.

    Engineering at USYD vs UNSW

    USYD Camperdown Campus definitely has a great atmosphere and will heaps more convenient. However, the majority of the Engineering faculty (Electrical included) is in the Darlington Campus which so so and their Engineering facilities overall are on par with typical public high-school facilities.

    Electrical Engineering or Software Engineering/Computer Science

    USYD EE building is ugly af, imagine your typical public high-school building but a bit bigger and more depressing. EE is probably the broadest imo (will have heaps of programming), and software engineering is more about optimising and developing software packages whilst CS is slightly more...

    Any computer science students fail first year maths

    You realise you don't even have to pass the finals for MATH1001 and MATH1002 to pass the subject overall if you've done decent in the quizzes unless they've made some changes this year that I'm unaware of. Pretty sure you don't need 2nd year maths (unless if it's discrete mathematics)

    In Terms of Syllabuses...

    Depends on the subject / course-coordinator. There are usually detailed subject descriptions that outline the topics to be learnt.

    12 or 13 subjects?

    why 13?

    12 or 13 subjects?

    12

    WAM reset?

    Nope, as long as you're at USYD you've got that transcript for the rest of your undergrad life.

    Chemical Engineering Q

    fairly average, although I'd probably reckon a bit lower than mechanical, electrical and civil.

    engineering question

    If you are able to achieve a solid band 5+ in 2U, university maths should alright if you put in heaps of effort. Be aware that the physics in university (especially for engineering based mechanics) is COMPLETELY different from high-school physics. No rote learning, memorization and and the...

    engineering question

    It will be almost impossible to find work in the aerospace industry in Australia. You should seriously consider your options and think if you really want to do engineering.

    Is high school a jungle?

    What about moving to a school that's not all boys? Most people grow out of it by YR 10.
  19. S

    Doing a second undergrad degree?

    If you mean 65 ATAR then no. A GPA of 5 on a 7 point scale usually translates to a credit average which is generally enough to be an able to transfer to most courses.
