I'm doing civil engineering so I can give you a little info about it. In civil eng, you can major in project management which might suit your interests. Being a civil engineer will provide you with much more knowledge into the whole process of building something and exactly how to do it -...

well if you're interested in that type of stuff you wont find it overly boring... as with anything really.

If you're talking about that bus stop near the biomed/medicine buildings, I believe they go to Burwood, Eastgardens, Central and possibly others. It has a central express service (the one on anzac prd and the one on high street have seperate central express bus streams), but I don't think they...

Perhaps she meant lecture notes? Anyway, for most of your classes, I doubt you'll get a recording of the lecture unless you happen to be lucky enough to get the right lecturer and room.

There's not many doing environmental at all. Last year, if I remember correctly, there were only about 10 out of 200 doing environmental alone, and about another 10 doing civil and environmental combined. Engineering students are well known drinkers. Every now and then you'll see parties held...

heheh, i remember my first bridging course exam at usyd... i took it so seriously because it was my first uni based test and all ahah. all those papers were just lying in a box before the test and i was so tempted to have a peek :p but yea, i realised after the test it was nothing to be worried...

I know 2 people doing it - one changed courses after a year (she did well but found it boring) and the other is barely passing. From what I've heard of it, it's a lot of theory based subjects, minimal calculations (you do a engineering studies type subject in semester 2), construction law...

There's heaps of powerpoints in and around the biomed library, which is little wonder why at any one time there's like 100 laptops in that room

no lol i think they have you covered

lol I didn't use my diary at all... and the CD that came with the diary is still stuck on the front page :p O-week nights are infinitely better than the days. That's when all the real entertainment commences!

Mining - a course with probably less than 50 people Civil - a course with probably 200 people Which one's easier to fill up? The only perk about Mining is the pay, and the enjoyment of it if you so happen to adore spending time down in mines, but I can't see how you would. No one wants to...

you're not allowed calculators in the 5 class tests (24%) and are allowed them in the final exam (70%).

i wasn't comparing them. i was just showing you if you didn't already know, that you could do civil/mining (which looks like the better choice for you) or just civil standalone

AFAIK, it's only common if you do the flexible engineering course. Mining is a very good option if you like to be in solitude for most of your life. For many, they would find this to be very boring and tedious... but ofcourse some people like it :p Civil is probably a better course (I'm...

andrew_q (starter of the stickied o-week thread) is a yellow shirter

why not just stand outside the main entrance of the uni... that way no one can miss ya there's a whole strip of grassy shady spots near the entrance (next to the tennis courts)

looks great

The campus tours really don't give you a whole lot of time to get to know each other 1 on 1, so yeah, unless they're super hot and mad to talk to or something like that, you'll probably never see them again like sunny said. I went with friends before so that might be a reason why I didn't...

yes and also for people that fail subjects but don't wanna make it up during normal session
