enrolment help needed!!! (1 Viewer)

[freaking_out]

i'm gonna b doing Engineering/Science....and for enrolment i am ment to choose subjects right?? which subjects am i meant to choose? i just looked at the handbook, it looks awfully complicated!!! is there any easy way (like a template) to choose my first year subjects now, so that i don't hold up the line on thursday!

 

[tooheyz]

hhahah yeah u got the same problem as me man

far out, they should send some CLEAR info with the lil brochure they sent us aye?

i read the engineering handbook, and they do list al the subjects - but no detail...

man this is annoying. just wait till the day, they should tell yer!
(hope they do..)

 

[tooheyz]

i just noticed that people who have trouble or having a stress attack bout enrollment r from usyd...

hmmm... think they should just make it online like unsw.

 

[tooheyz]

im just confused.

yeah, thats true, they shuld have like a clear guide for first year students or something- that engineering handbook scares me!

c, i don't wanna hold up the line, and make decisions up on the spot like that u know- i wanna b able to think abt. what subjects to do...i guess thats not gonna happen.

USyd's system is much easier...
They do have plans available when you go in to enrol, and if it's a standard degree (such as one from the engineering faculty) then you have no real choice regarding subjects anyway. Most of my mates from the engineering faculty were in and out within 20 minutes, while I spent close to 1.5 hours enrolling for a course from the science faculty (45 minutes of which was spent sitting down trying to determine the units that I should take).

it should take me about two minutes once reaching the front of the queue....

i have all my subjects written on a bit of paper, just to hand to them....

how did u work out what subjects to do?

 

[tooheyz]

yeah i read somewhere in the engineering handbook that we can change our majors afterwards
before auguest or something like that

yeah, like which documents- did u just read the handbook?

 

[tooheyz]

LoL, i simply don't understand the handbook, they've got all these 2nd, 3rd year courses- its so confusing!

therefore, if u c someone on thursday, holding up the line- then its prolly me selecting subjects from scratch.

 

[tooheyz]

well just to let you know! i found the electives!!
hahah

for me, its under the heading 'undergrauates units of study' in the faculty handbook

here all the topics for your course is shown, and at the bottom of your subject, there are the electives and a brief description of what it is

hahaha hope that helps

 

[freaking_out]

yeah, i know, but how do i know which courses, to choose- there must b like some restrictions, i can't just go off and choose anything i like in the book can i ?

btw, since i'm doing combined degree, where do i find info of the science subjects that i need to do?

 

[tooheyz]

dude i have no idea
i think u pick the elective that u want, and then they work out ur time table and they make sure you do all the course u need to do to do your elective

(did that make sense? LOL)

im sure there will be someone to talk to on enrollment!

you can always change ur elective later one... if u do change ur mind.

yeah, in that case i can choose whatever i want on enrolment day, and know that i can change later on.

what degree are you in "freaking_out"?

on the day, you will most likely be given an example a structure of the degree. it will point out the CORE units and the electives...

copy the CORE units down, and just pick your electives from your faculty from the 1000 level units.

thats what i suggest. then go home and read up on your degree structure...you can always change it later.

yeah, i think thats what i'll b doing- and holding the line up in the process as well.

yeah, i'm doing B Engineering (civil)/ B Science (hopefully advanced)

btw, isn't it like for combined degrees: my electives are basically my B Science subjects?

So we CAN change our units of study things whenever we like between now and.. whenever?

And do they sell faculty handbooks at enrolment??
