    EnergyAustralia Electrical Engineering Cadetship - worth it?

    hi there! in most cases, the fourth year thesis is not groundbreaking pioneering research - that's what a PHD is for. there is simply not enough to time in fourth year (bear in mind that as well as doing the thesis, you also have to do a number of subjects as well) to do anything in enough...

    General Engo Talk.

    Curry has a point, this thread reads like the msn chat log of a couple of school kids on a sugar high. you don't need to put a lawlz or a rofl or lol or anything else at the end of your post except a full stop. also it would be good if you actually said something semi-intelligent in your...

    Hey all you 3rd and 4th year aerospace or mechatronic ppl:

    hi there you're only in first year, so there is no hurry to make these kind of decisions. the subjects you will find the easiest are the ones you are most interested in, so other people's opinions on whether certain streams of engineering are easier/harder are pretty subjective and won't...

    Question about ENGG1000

    yeah don't worry about it - it happened to me last year, and the problem is that when you click auto timetable it puts you in a random one, so everyone ended up in the wrong stream - it all gets fixed up in the first week. good luck for first year!

    What is this ..."ARC"... you speak of???

    for those of us who are not made of money, i beg to differ. the only food on campus i consider good value are the $3 chicken and salad rolls up in the matthews pavilion, but everything else - especially the quad food court and clem's - is way overpriced for what it is however there are some...

    MATH1141 or MATH1131

    Last year I thought that I would want the challenge of MATH1141/1241, but I think first year would have been more enjoyable if I had just done the easier courses. As musk says, there is no advantage in doing Higher Maths - except perhaps if you are doing a maths major. For engineers, maths is...
