    UNSW accounting researchers ranked No.1 in the world

    Very true. But one thing i learned from UNI is smart lecturers != good teachers. I'd rather be taught by a recent graduate who can teach than a world renowned Nobel prize winner who puts you to sleep. In fact, my UNI marks are direct indicators of how much I enjoyed the lecturers teaching (as...

    Maths in electircal engineering

    I'm not sure which formulas your talking about? Heres how i would do it though: dv/dt + 1.625v = 0 from here its obvious that: v(t) = A e^(-1.625)t <<<<----Is this the memorised formula your talking about? if v(0) = 20 then A = 20. v(t) = 20e^(-1.625t) But wogboys method is...

    Australian University Teaching Rankings

    If thats the case then i wouldn't be surprised to find UNSW so low. For most of the subjects, students are forced to do a survey at the end of the semester.

    careers for comp sci

    Yes Comp eng is hard but really, are you sure you want to transfer after 1st semester? Give it some time, first year (or first semester) always SEEMS 100x harder then the following years (even though it's not). I went through HELL (i dont think there's a better word to describe what it felt...

    Arts > Software Engineering/Computer Science

    yes but he's doing general maths. No way he'll pass 1131 without atleast 2 unit knowledge. You can enroll in general maths 1b here, but even that requires 2 unit background. Not sure if they have courses any lower than this. You might want to speak to the maths faculty about it...

    Arts > Software Engineering/Computer Science

    Just apply for normal CS or Software degree instead of going from arts to something else. I dont understand why you want to do it that way? Also, bridging course is normaly for people with 2 unit background, not general mathematics. You can probably enroll in some introductory mathematics...

    Computer Science minor/electives

    Just a question sunny, in the final transcript when you graduate, will it mention any minors depending on the electives we chose (specifcally for computer engineering)? Also, does it list every subject you did from 1st year or 3rd year only? thanks :)
