Not sure but The CLB rooms are the main lecture theatres, I saw them on the UNSW open day.

 

[zannaz]

thought they were at Usyd, where they were holding economics/business mini lectures? It was very nice airconditioned, light and open auditoriums and lecture theatres!!!
But Usyd does have some really old lecture halls that seemed run down!!! but only a few!!

Yeah, most of the theatres of sydney are really nice, a few are run-down *crosses fingers and hopes I don't have to study in one of them*.

But UNSW has more run-down theatres, I wouldn't even call them lecture halls, they are that bad.

I would have never thought. . . i never really spent much time there at info day. . . . and looking at the exterior the uni looks really modern, and comfortable, which is also potrayed through their brochures!!!

yes it looks modern on the outside, but inside (well the rooms I visited) were real bad. That may not be the case with other faculty buildings I don't know cause I didn't visit them.

Of course all the Uni's try to show the best part of their uni on their brochures, it's all part of advertising

 

[mannnnndy]

are there any other lecture halls at unsw? specifically for engineering?

Yeah that's true, the whole marketing plan is to attract students particularly high achieving ones with nice old granduer buldings and modern state of the art facilities. . . i know some people totally blinded by these things and solely choosing certian universities for superficial reasons. I was like that until i actually went to open day and realised there was more to the univeristy!!!

I originally had UNSW as my first preference, cause I thought it had a good course, and a really nice modern atmosphere to it, but when I visited the opoen day it wasn't what I expected.

Sydney Uni wil be great.....can't wait.

I'm doing adv.maths/commerce, so I'll see u there for the commerce part. All this talk about which course is better at UNSW or syd is irrelevant really (that's what I've come to realise, at times I think I should have put UNSW as my first preference), what really matters is that you perform your best and do well.

Even if you go to a course which seems better at a particular uni if you don't perform you don't get anywhere.
