    Physicist Vs Engineer (Salary)

    Thanks for the advice. To do nanotechnology don't you need chemistry? Or can studying quantum mechanics and particle physics be enough? I like the sound of your friends research positions! $55k and $100 per hour for a lecture and $75 per hour for tutorials. Again thanks for the advice and...

    Breadth Studies for 2009 Melbourne University Students

    Cool. The breadth study book is on the melbourne uni website! I was really worried about giving up chemistry to study an engineering subject (since I have never studied it), but now I can see heaps of physics minded people studying it.:) If the assessment for criminology will be essay based...

    Breadth Studies for 2009 Melbourne University Students

    Is it true that to major in chemical systems you only need to have studied first year chemistry and then the engineering faculty has subjects that are more chemical engineering based? I'm actually considering doing my first year chemistry during the summer and then during second year (first...

    Do we need to draw title pages for each subject at uni?

    Are you serious? The last time I did a title page was in year 7!!! In my senior years I went through that many exercise books that having a title page was just out of the question. With assignments though having a title page is good for presentation. I'm going to love writing professional...

    Stuttering & University

    I have aspergers syndrome and during earlier years of high school it caused a fair amount of bullying. I don't get bullied anymore though. I also have OCD so I sometimes just grunt for no reason or I'm constantly touching my face (These things happen more when I'm nervous). They are very...

    Nagative impacts due to choosing ESL english

    ESL in VCE doesn't actually effect your ENTER or university ellegibility (I did VCE so Im just using the VCE system)! Say a university requires a 25 for english, then a 30 would be required in ESL! This is simply because ESL is easier to do, but that's it! ESL I think scales down slightly more...

    Rudd's $42 billion 'nation building' plan

    I hope that they keep it out for atleast 5 years! Once I finish my degree and earn a fairly decent income I will want to buy an appartment so I can build up assets.

    Rudd's $42 billion 'nation building' plan

    Same here. But I get youth allowance! If you recieve youth allowance I think you will. I hope so! My uni text books will cost atleast $800.

    Rudd's $42 billion 'nation building' plan

    I think as long as you get youth allowance you will get it. Because you are a student you will fit the category aslong as you get youth allowance or Austudy, etc. I think!

    Rudd's $42 billion 'nation building' plan

    Physicist Vs Engineer (Salary)

    According to the statistics provided, an average physicist's salary is basically on a par with or slightly 'higher' than that of your 'average' engineer! Whoa.

    Physicist Vs Engineer (Salary)

    Thanks for the post!!! I definately expect that this field will be highly competitive. In my bachelor of science degree I'm doing advanced physics and with a 39 as my study score, I heard about a person who is going there with a 49 for their study score:eek:! So the competition is going to be...

    Physicist Vs Engineer (Salary)

    I like that slogan! 600k per year is a salary I would only dream of achieving! If I could get up to $150'k' per year I would be very happy!

    Did anyone not have room for a subject that interested them?

    Well thats a relief!!! I think with chemical engineering you only need the first year chemistry as a pre-requisite. I don't really want to do analytical chemistry or any 'chemistry' chemistry! When we studied unit 4 chemistry (VCE): equilibria, electrochemical series, studying chemical plants...

    Breadth Studies for 2009 Melbourne University Students

    I put ages into my mid year exam and recieved an A+. I put ages into my end of year exam too but I had that stupid specialist maths exam, which finished at around 5pm the night before, I ended up getting home at about 6:30pm and had no time to refine a few of my skills with physics, so I entered...
