Civil Engineering at UTS or USYD/UNSW? (1 Viewer)

[yacine]

For Civil Engineering would you be better off doing 5 year degree at UTS (including the 1 year experience) or doing a 4 year degree with USYD/UNSW and the 1 year experience in the industry after you finish.

So pretty much after 5 years, what would be better.
the UTS certificate with their experince or
the USYD/UNSW certificate with external experince.

I just wanted to know what people think would be the better way to go.

Graduate experience as a real engineer is infinitely more important than undergraduate work experience.

Note: They're not certificates they're degrees.

you can do the UTS degree without the experience.

All degrees require some form of industrial work experience in order for you to graduate.

I know at USYD you can get 6months of work experience through a scholarship/industrial placement program.

Both end up eventually in the same position except

The 5 year degree ensures where you wanna do in your profession, all uts subjects are offered every semester so if you failed one you can do it again next semester instead of waiting a yr and putting up with a broken pattern as the other unis have their subjects once a year.

Thats pretty interesting.

Even second and third year subjects ? (class sizes <20 ?)
