[c00kiezncreme]

Is E-Business a course worth doing? Lots of ppl have told me..its not really a good idea :S

i want some more information..

is future prospects good for it?

What do u guys think?

 

[vanity]

e-biz used to be my last pref but took it off..
then today macq sent me that silly thing wanting me to go to their info day and the talks about their technology courses

i really have no idea what its about but the guy from the open day was all like yeah its good!
haha sorri i dunno

E-Buz, eh? I don't know much; except from someone I know who does it. It's sort of a cross between Commerce and Science; you do more Businessy units and some Computing among other normal Com and Sci units.

Job prospects? I wouldn't know.

LOL@Vanity

of course that dude is gonna say its good.
but e-business is good if you wanna become an e-thug like me.

peace^^

it sounds good to me
computer IT skills are highly respected for any job now, esp in commerce.

It's also rad for transfering to other Commerce-related degrees, as the UAI was much lower than Commerce (and you have access to lots of Commerce units).

 

[c00kiezncreme]

So who's really keen on doin it?

i've put it as my 4th preference @ macq uni.

 

[GoodToGo]

Seriously, it's like you are pretty much in Commerce if you are enrolled in an e-bus (for those that missout on Commerce at Macq). And then do a transfer after 1 semester.

 

[c00kiezncreme]

it shouldnt b too hard to transfer right?

 

[zaijan_85]

not hard jus needs a bit of effort and u'll transfer
GPA was 2.5 i think

 

[GoodToGo]

GPA of 2.0 for Commerce, 2.5 for BBA.

 

[jlh]

does anyone know why the macq uni internal trasnfer gpa requirments are so low? i mean 2.0 for commerce is not even a pass average.

 

[GoodToGo]

I don't think you understand our GPA system. 2.0 IS a pass average. 2.5 is equivalent to 2 passes and 2 credits.

It's low cos the uni is prides itself on flexibility or whatever.

 

[jlh]

oh 2.0 IS a pass average. opps my mistake...

do you know how to convert a usyd gpa to a macq gpa? i'm looking to trasnfer to commerce or soemthing with my c average from usyd.

 

[GoodToGo]

Not really sure...

If you tell me what grade point a PC, P, Cr, D, HD is at usyd then I might have a fair idea.

For MQ: F=0, PC=1, P=2, Cr=3, D & HD=4.

 

[*~Dazed~*]

i pissed myself at one of the lectures when the dude was giving the 'scientific formula' for how they work out gpa... he just looked over at me and gave this weird smile, laugh nod thing...
i didnt mean for anyone to hear me.... my first uni embarassing moment

 

[-=«MÄLÅÇhïtÊ»=-]

i think they look at more than just your internal gpa when you request external transfers.

 

[flyin']

Your UAI and your *actual* GPA is used. Note that actual takes into account of HDs.

 

[santaslayer]

for external transfer u use the external transfer system...woteva it is..lol
