I'm planning to do this course next year, any advice/updates?
I am in my third year of the course.
The course is not that difficult, however, be prepared to do a lot of group assignments. It is an industry norm for students to become cadets in the field within your second and third year - this means working full-time on top of your university studies.
Currently I work full-time (45+ hours per week Mon-Sat) and at uni for one full day & one night. It is a challenge and stressful at times but working and studying simultaneously is very rewarding. You understand all the concepts and see them in practice too.
I only recommend it if you like challenge; if you are looking for a cruisey (sp?) office job, construction is not for you.
Any other questions, let me know.
