24, same as UNSW. One of the major reasons I chose usyd besides them offering space degrees and transport reasons was the flexibility.

I should probably save". Clicked saved. Programme crashed. Lost document. Steele felt like placing his fist inside his monitor.

Um, you can hopefully understand if I just give you links and tell you to check it out for yourself, now, I hope. Feel free to ask me any questions about the degree. I've done an almost exhaustive search for info about it so that I know what I'm getting myself into (that includes non-academic factors, such as male:female ratio, demeanor of peers and lecturers, class sizes, whether or not lecturers wll go to the pub with you, starting salary, et cetera ) Also, the members "Courtenay" and "gress <3 tig" do Renewable and Photovoltaics respectively, so you can contact them if you have any questions, also.

Oh and UNSW is the world leader in photovoltaics. Another very good reason to do it.
oh wow... i didn't expect you to go to all that trouble; but thankyou very much for that captain Slide, i sincerely appreciate it. :uhhuh:
you should've just given the links in the first place, they would've been more than helpful already :)

i feel sorry for your computer now - it obviously couldn't handle your zeal :D

and i'm feeling guilty at the same time - caused you all that trouble and still ain't sure if i'm going to choose PV :(

LOL. No, don't worry about it. I just get passionate about this sort of thing since if I can rationalise my choice to you, I feel more secure with it myself. :p

If i were to do engineering next year at unsw photovaltics was my choice of stream since electrical/computing/software are not allowed. But I think im going to stick with just plain BSc CompSci/BSc (maths) rather than BSc compsci/BE
