    2nd Year Student questions

    I think you're right just seems like I'm wasting the last 2 years of my life by transferring, but I've been thinking about it, and with the double degree I'm currently doing, I'm looking at finishing my course by 2019-2020 so if I transfer to a single degree of engineering at another uni I could...

    2nd Year Student questions

    Nah I appreciate the bluntness, what about Masters in Engineering Science (in Elec Eng) as the website says "allows students to consolidate a specialization from an undergraduate degree, change direction to a new area of engineering" I might just hedge my bets and finish my degree, I can...

    2nd Year Student questions

    Sorry I was meant to quote the post above that, where he referenced that doing a masters in electrical engineering would be a bad idea if I didn't do my undergraduate in that major, and I was wondering if he meant it would be a bad idea in terms of admissions into post graduate or something else...

    On the UNSW master of eng page their not very specific about the undergraduate requirements for admission so I wasn't very sure, and figured reddit could help

    2nd Year Student questions

    MQ doesn't offer electrical, so I assumed Computer Eng is pretty versatile and relatable to Electrical and I was thinking of changing my science major to electronics. would that be better?

    Change in degree outline from 2015 to 2016

    Thanks for answering these questions as well, I submitted a AskMq question about the 2016 outline like you said. But 1 last thing I'm curious about, what happens to my GPA when I change to a single degree? Will all the subjects I've done transfer on my academic record, I have 2 Failed Absent...

    2nd Year Student questions

    Really appreciate your reply The reason I asked about postgrad was because I figured Eng at MQ wouldn't be particularly appealing to the job market. Also, because I want to study/work in Electrical rather then Mech. So, I think I'm going to drop Science and focus only on Engineering. Though...

    Change in degree outline from 2015 to 2016

    So I'm a second year eng/sci student and I'm majoring in Mechanical. The name of the degree in 2015 was just Bachelor of Engineering with the degree of Bachelor of Science but now in 2016 it's Bachelor of Engineering with Honours with the degree of Bachelor of Science. I'm curious as to whether...

    2nd Year Student questions

    I'm studying a Bachelor of Eng and Sci and Macquarie uni, majoring in Mechanical and Chemistry respectively. I didn't put much thought into choosing my degree/majors, and coasted through my first year (have a terrible GPA atm). So I had a few questions that would help get my shit together. 1)...

    Engineering Maq to Engineering at UTS, UNSW, or Usyd

    I'm doing Mech Eng and Science at Mq, and wondering what type of marks I will need to transfer to the above mentioned uni's, also if I fail a unit (for instance, my chemistry unit which is related to my science degree not my eng degree) how heavily will this affect my chances?

    Didn't attend my Physics tutorial?

    Today I didn't go to my tutorial because the weather was being a bitch and I live two hours away. I'm just wondering whether this will affect me completing the unit, as every week we have these small 10min tutorial exams (though only the best 8 out of the 12 are counted)? Also, I realise I'll...

    Can we still change our units?

    I know classes started today, but can we still withdraw from units and add different ones, also how would this effect our hecs since in the "my fiances" tab of estudent it shows payments for units have already units. Also, can is there still time to switch our majors?
