Hi everyone, so to summarise I recently commenced interaction design at USYD but don't like it. I'm not a big fan of UX anymore, particularly the creative coding aspect which has been really boring/difficult and my mental health has taken a dive, I can't even focus on any design units, only my one business unit.
Right now I think I have two options (I'm looking into):
- transfer to single USYD commerce next semester: I like the business info system major. I think I'll also be able to keep my scholarship (8k per year) if I do this. although, this would require me to complete the current semester (which consists of mostly design units) and I genuinely think I may fail my design programming unit (causing the scholarship to be terminated all together). I was actually enrolled in commerce initially, but left before commencing cause I had doubts about employability/interest regarding single business degrees.
- transfer to UTS business/IT next semester: This might be risky. I like the broadness of an IT and Business double and would have picked it if not for USYD's scholarship. The IT degree also seems pretty business focused (at least for the business info system major under it). I'd also therefore be foregoing my USYD scholarship. If I do this, I can either simply take a gap semester now but I'm just scared it won't be worth losing out on USYD's scholarship.
sorry if this rant is confusing lol kinda freaking out
thanks in advance
