Is it possible to do some form of traineeship working as a Nurse but also attend university at the same time, e.g. a 3 day shift + 2 day theory at uni (part-time) or something along those lines. Is the course difficult by itself? I know of a few people who do Nursing in hoping to later...

Just to add to this topic which I posted on whirlpool as well lol. Me: "Hey all, I'm currently doing Bachelor of Business and Commerce Human Resources and Industrial Relations at UWS Parramatta. I'm in my 2nd year at the moment and doing majority 3rd year units of which all of them require...

Hey all, This is just a rant. I'm in BBC (Human Resources / Industrial Relations) and all of the units I'm doing this semester require a 50% minimum pass for the final exams. Does anyone else believe this is extremely unfair, stupid and a very backwards way of assessing students? You could...

A sort of different question, is it not wise to do Level 3 subjects in my first year? Most of the remaining units in the level 1 and 2 bracket I want to do are in Autumn and the only subject in spring that looks good is a level 3 unit :S There is only 1 prerequisit for the course which I have...

Parramatta is somewhat of a hole as it is now. Some days you'll see more dust balls floating around than people walking about, so I guess the welcome of more students is a positive sign. However, whether this place is adequate enough to hold the amount of incoming students is another thing...

Speaking of units (Off-topic but I don't want to make a new thread). Has anyone here ever done their core units last? I feel these first year subjects are way too boring and only 1 subject for my first year course is an actual pre-requisit for my 2nd and 3rd year subjects. I feel like doing all...

I know a lot of people (including myself) who don't even attend tutes or have missed more than 4. Does UWS go hard on you for doing this? Cause I think I've missed about 4-5 classes for Marketing Principles. And for my Managing People @ Work unit, there is an average of 8 students per tute while...

Sorry for being so random folks but I'd just like to ask all the folks of UWS if WebCT is down right now. Us management people need it for our assignments due tomorrow.

Yeah some are alright, the more 'artistic ones' as long as it's not on private property. The idiots who spray their stupid low-life centrelink gang names should be put on an island and shot dead because their lives are a waste to humanity and Earth eg. the infidels who spray "KS GanGz...

http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,21468557-38196,00.html I wish there were laws in Australia that would increase the punishment against graffiti hoons aka low-life scum bags. Right now these kids just get a slap on the wrist, then they go back to the spray shop and use their centrelink...

I'm doing Bachelor of Business (E-Business). For me it's start @ bus stop, go to block EA and then go back to the bus stop, occasionally going to the cafeteria... that's my uni life =D UWS Parramatta FTW

Don't know about you guys but I find the Parramatta campus to be a little shit. No ATM, a few km's away from a decent feed, no gym, too many people smoke, people would rather play with their mobiles than make new friends. Socially it's ok, but I find you have to talk to people first otherwise...

hehe yeah, those units looks pretty nasty. When it comes to tutorials I enjoy them and I learn quite a lot, it's just the lectures that shit me, especially the no-life subjects like Accounting. I hardly bother taking notes down in large lectures, the atmosphere just makes you want to go to...

This week is my first week of uni, after attending all of my lectures. I have found them incredibly boring except for "Principles of the Internet", which has a smaller lecture/classroom. I find that lectures with smaller numbers are more worthwhile. My question is, are most of the lectures all...

I'm a first-time voter and I'm voting for Labor both state and Federal. First of all, I dislike private education. Even though I went to a Catholic high school, the brainwashing didn't have any effect on me and I'm glad it didn't. The government has taken out a lot of funding from public...

As humans become more intelligent and as China and India become more powerful, I'm sure the belief in God will change. We live in the 21st century, this should be a time of prosperity, a time of greater knowledge about the universe and our creation, it should be about unity and equality for all...

People who believe in God are normally weak minded or have been forced upon as a child thus not being able to remove it from the mind. Tell me if God is perfect why does he allow the creation of the imperfect or such human beings that are evil minded, thus leading to their fate in eternal...

Do you think they would? We do a lot more than we should for the US already. But if our so called friends still refuse to sell us some F-22 Raptors, what makes you think that they will allow Australia to build a base on their soil? If we just do our job to support the Oceania region and don't...
