UNSW Engineering. (how long u spend at uni) (1 Viewer)

[Aznduud3]

how long do you guys spend at uni for engineering course? i know there is alot of courses, but im assuming they are around the same level.


and if you do combined degree (arts), how long would you spend also?

 

[Riviet]

Engineering degrees at UNSW are generally 5 years minimum (full time). I think a combined arts degree would be 5.5+ years.

in teams of hours, ive heard from engo students themselves saying its almost like high school, 5 full days, a bit less hours than high school.

my brother does law and he has like 1-2 days off and a lot of "frees"

i thought most single degree engineering courses only have a duration of around 4 years...at UNSW, UTS, USYD and UWS
you have to expect long hours though....maybe around 26 hrs mainly due to 3 hr labs.

 

[Aznduud3]

so its like 5 hrs a day hey? 5 days a week too?

so ill just expect another 4 yrs of school then?


my friend said 10 hours for eng courses, bu i dont believe him...is there even a 10 hour full time course?


o and im combining with art. how long do you think that will take? (in terms of hours/wk)

Commerce is about 12 hours a week. Science/engineering can expect double that.

This is easily answered by the UNSW Handbook http://www.handbook.unsw.edu.au/2007/index.html.

Engineering Arts is 5yrs at UNSW.

UTS I believe is 5 years standard, because they do a year of (paid) work placement during the 4 year course.

at unsw

engineering/arts 5 years
you take 4 courses per session
each engineering course is between 4 and 6 hours/week
most arts courses are 3 hours/week
in total (pre 2006 enrolment) you take 10 arts courses, the rest engineering

expect to take a lot of abuse from the engineering students for being an artsy f4g.

 

[withoutaface]

Most engineering degrees outside UTS are 4 years.
Combined engineering at all unis is 5-5.5 years, and UTS straight engineering is 5 years.
It's all in the UAC guide.

Not really. Most CSE students I know envy the abundance of white people in my politics tutes.

Most students I know at USyd aren't racists.

 

[shannonm]

so it takes 4 years to do engineering degree at unsw ???

Yeah. civil is 4, but im there for 5 cuz im doing it with arts. meh one year extra and an extra degree, not too bad, plusits a good contrast.
