Hi everyone. Last week we sat our ELECTENG 204 final exam (worth 70% of the final grade) and Semester Two is officially over. I am so happy that I have survived this semester and by far it has been the best semester for me. When I look back at the last 4 weeks of the…Continue Reading A Great Ending to a Challenging Semester

A Few Parting Gifts
The end of the year is here and with it my last post. It’s been rough and I know I’m waaaaayyyyyyy behind on my posts.

FAQs, Student Profiles and Parting Advice
With decision day fast approaching, I’m offering up my unsolicited advice for choosing a specialisation and final words on my experience in BME.

Let’s start off with the pros: Mechanical Engineering is one of the core engineering disciplines, meaning that the scope for Mechanical Engineers is vast.

The end of another year, already?
The end of the year is coming up fast now, and if you’re reading this, it probably means that you’re trying to decide whether CHEMMAT is the right specialisation for you. Choosing can be tricky for a lot of people, but I think my biggest piece of advice would be to not be afraid to…Continue Reading The end of another year, already?
What a Year It’s Been
I honestly can’t believe that this year is almost over, and it’s nearly time for you to choose your specialisations for next year. It doesn’t seem like that long ago when I was in your position trying to toss up the pros and cons of a few of my favourite papers from the year. I’m…Continue Reading What a Year It’s Been
