Yep contact hours are around 24 hours per week for a first year. That's not including time to do your online quizzes, assignments and study. The labs take up a good chunk of the contact hours. Probably best to try and keep up each week although I know people who just cram during the study week...

Your close uni friends are usually the ones where you are all in the same classes together as opposed to those you see maybe one class a week. In engineering, you are in the same tutorials/labs/lectures with the same people for the first 3 years which definitely helps.

Join some clubs.

mechatronics/electrical.

I was in your position. What about your tutes? That's where you can talk to those in your course a bit more.

change to mining.

Just wondering in which field of electrical engineering are UNSW grads more renown for? e.g power, signals etc etc.

I've seen this a few times here but can anyone shed any light if an employer will look at which uni you went to? Or do they moreso look at what grades you got and your personality? Cheers.

what have you done that would demonstrate leadership qualities? why did you choose this degree? what do you think an engineer does (if you are doing engineering) who has influenced you in your life apart from your parents? cant remember the rest sorry but good luck.

Nope.

Not too sure about later years but so far first year doesnt have anything from Motors and Generators. I don't think we've done anything that goes into Motors and Generators a whole lot.

I got an interview for New College soon, what questions are usually asked?

yes. well for electrical you need to do a programming subject so a laptop is handy.

Im doing electrical at UOW first year: ext 1 is assumed knowledge so as long as you do your homework and take notes in lectures and keep up with the work it shouldnt be that bad. but this is only first year thus far im sure it will get harder. Uni depends on you, all courses are relatively...

So if I was to transfer from UOW to UNSW in electrical engineering, are the courses similar enough that I can just keep on going 2nd year at UNSW without catching up? I.e I can transfer most of my credit points over?? I think thats what I meant.

i spent about 800 - food, drinks, club entry, shopping etc.

hello im going uow too this year, hoping to do electrical engineering / mathematics double degree :)

thought i coulda gone better in physics, surprised at my english mark considering its my shittest subject and i came 22nd.

I got what I expected in most subjects, apart from physics i thought i coulda got better, didnt surprise myself but still happy. comparing myself to other 4unit students, I only did good. that is all.

umm cant remember all of em, use of heat, electrolysis, hammers to remove encrustations, desalinise in water....cant remember
