Semester 1

HSTY 2618 Mediterranean World in High Middle Ages
HSTY 2656 A House Divided: The American Civil War
HSTY 2670 New York, New York
LAWS1018 International Law

Semester 2

HSTY 2679 Advanced Australia
LAWS 1017 Torts & Contracts II
LAWS 1021 Public Law

Bummed that they scrapped the 3000-level courses for history, although Advanced Australia looks like a decent substitute. Since I overloaded in semester 1 this year my second semester for 2008 will be nice and light.

 

[Rafy]

Semester 1
CLAW3201 - Australian Taxation System
CLAW2204 - Banking and Finance Law
ECOP2012 - Social Foundations of Modern Capitalism
GOVT2552 - Policy Analysis

Semester 2
CLAW3202 - Tax Strategies in a Business Enviroment
GOVT3558 - Internship in Public Policy and Affairs

If i don't get into GOVT3558 i'll do in its place:
GOVT2558 - Government, Business and Society
GOVT2331 - Social Change and Politics
GOVT2116 - Australian Foreign and Defence Policy

 

[Triangulum]

Hands down the best ANHS course ever, good choice! You won't regret it (particularly if it's the Peter Brennan/Lyn Olson lecturer combination).

A lot of people seem to be doing the HSTY2618 (Middle Ages) course, I had it down on my pre-enrolment before I decided to transfer. Most of the medieval history courses at USyd tend to be okay, depending on who's taking them.

I actually chose ANHS2608 on the basis of your review of it. It sounds quite awesome. I hear that Peter Brennan is retiring, so Lyn Olson will be the only one taking the course.

As for HSTY2618, I'm a little unsure because the handbook doesn't say who's teaching it. I might end up replacing it with New York, New York or A House Divided.

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

Ed subjects only if I don't make the transfer

S1
CHEM2401 - Molecular Reactivity & Spectroscopy
BIOL2011 - Invertebrate Zoology
PHIL1011 - Reality, Ethics & Beauty (or EDUF3027 - International Education)
ENGL1008 - Australian Texts: International Contexts (or EDUF3030 - Australian Secondary Schooling)

S2
BIOL3025 - Evolutionary Genetics & Animal Behaviour
CHEM2402 - Chemical Structure & Stability
ENGL2617 - Postmodernism (or EDSE2001 - Craft Knowledge & Professional Practices 1)
PHIL10121013 - Society, Knowledge & Self (or EDUF2007 - Social Perspective on Education)

Thank God I get to skip EdPsych all together, having done it already at UNSW. It sounds terrible at Sydney.

 

[^CoSMic DoRiS^^]

i forget. a bunch of education units, a couple of english units (i think so far its 'reading sexuality' and romantic british literature or something) and a couple of performance studies units, i forget their names, something about rehearsal and audience preparation.

yeah i haven't looked at my pre-enrolment since i first did it, thats why i can't remember. i think i'll be changing around my english units a bit if the ol' timetable doesn't look a bit better.

The course on Byzantium taught by Greek Professor Karalis should be a cracker.

Warning: lecturer is a European intellectual. He speaks fast and thinks faster. Brilliant man with a kind heart. Thinks we are all savages (in the nicest way possible).

Unfortunately, I might not be able to take it.

Looks like:

either Latin or Modern Greek,
Classical Greek
2 Govt Subjects (something about post-communism?)
and 1 Political Economy - the Social one i think.

[stazi]

I'm still trying to get the best timetable and atm it looks like shit, so I may well be changing subjects For instance, I'm missing out on taking philosophy as it's a shit tuesday and thursday 1 hour each lecture schedule.

Semester 1:
CLAW2205 - Trade Practices and Consumer Law (may have to give this one a miss. fuck i wanted to do it so much )
MKTG3116 - International Marketing
MKTG3120 - Building and Managing Brands

Semester 2:
MKTG3118 - Marketing Strategy and Planning
MKTG3112 - Marketing Communications
IBUS3102


I'm considering:
ARIN3640 Computer Games and Simulation
ANTH1001 Cultural Difference: An Introduction

then again I could take out CLAW, pu tin an arts unit, then do 4 units in semester 2 with another marketing subject that fits nicely

 

[^CoSMic DoRiS^^]

ok what the hell, does every subject on the planet have to insist on having a 10am monday slot? i've only got one to go around guys. also what is with the late finishes i am going to end up with

meh. i'm sticking to my guns as much as i can...i've only got like 2 subjects i can change around, anyway.

 

[stazi]

fuck you all. i cant do any of the arts informatics ones. argh. so angry.

 

[^CoSMic DoRiS^^]

fucking (compulsory) performance studies get the hell out of my mondays!!!! or at least shift to like, after 1pm?? fuck.

on the upside though, i am looking at a 3 day semester 1 and a 2 day semester 2 if i sort out the clashes and can work some magic on the timetable generator.

edit: managed to work out the clashes...just means a couple of late finishes...i guess i can handle that. if (when!) i move out next year i'll be able to handle any start/finish time. yay.
