Hello!
Well, it's preference time. I'm considering eng/com and eng/sci degrees at UNSW, UTS, and USYD - BE (civil or mechanical), BCom (not certain on what I want to major in), BSci (Computer science). I've got some doubts which have arisen since the unsw/usyd/uts open days, so It'd be really nice if you guys could help out
1. One thing that I have noticed is that while all the single degrees have their own various diff. majors, with their own diff. UAC codes, the eng/com or eng/sci degrees have just the one code with no majors mentioned. Is this only done to save space or something? lol :S
2. It seems that UTS does not offer a BE/BCom, but a BE/Bbusiness. Is this UTS' fancy name equivalent for a Be/Com? http://www.handbook.uts.edu.au/eng/ug/c10065.html
http://community.boredofstudies.org...50/bachelor-business-v-bachelor-commerce.html - this thread didn't help that much, a 9v9 poll lol
3. From what I've gathered it seems like the 1st year of engineering is all basic, common stuff. If this is the case, then what is the point of a Flexible First Year? Wouldn't it still be the same as changing your major (e.g. from civil eng to mechanical) even if you didn't have the FFY?
4. Is it possible to double up a Bcom or BE with a flexible first year at usyd/unsw/usyd? I asked a lecturer at UNSW, he didn't really know lol
5. What do you think about a BE/BSci (com sci)? I've heard that engo proggies will have to be made. Would a BSci be helpful in this regard? I don't do software for hsc btw (I do 4U Math, Adv Eng, Phys, Chem) but I've always had an interest with computers.
Cheers!
