Welcome! I’m Brian, and I’ll be your Electrical blogger this year. I have been described by my COMPSYS201 lecturer as “making things rather worse,” and I can only hope to carry over this same positive work ethic and dedication as I enter the blog team this year. Outside of my degree, I’m usually chasing deadlines…Continue Reading Electromagnetic In(tro)duction
It’s the 13th November 2018. Our last (and only) exam was 5th November. Yes, second year Electrical students have only one exam in the second semester. Now this probably sounds like music to your ears, it certainly did when I first heard this wonderful news! While it is nice having only one exam to study…Continue Reading YES I MADE IT
Hi there! It’s been two weeks since the end of our mid-semester break. And by ‘break’ I don’t mean an actual break, as in a holiday. Oh no no. I was busier than I usually am at uni (and that’s pretty busy!). I shifted house during the break and that lost me about five days…Continue Reading Pressing On
I can’t believe it’s already the third week of semester 2! I swear we just started back only a few days ago? The good news is that the semester is going fast which means that it will be over really soon. The bad news is that it’s already really busy, and is only going to…Continue Reading The World Needs Electrical Engineers!
After a nice break from the previous year’s grind, it was time to get back to learning. I was indeed excited – I had already completed one year of my degree and made it through! I was on my way to reaching my goal. Since the second semester of the year before, I knew I…Continue Reading Why Electrical?
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
Hi everyone. Hope semester two has been well for you so far. Please check out the video above before reading this post. I would argue semester 2 of Part II Computer Systems Engineering and Electrical and Electronic Engineering is very different to all other specialisation. We only have one final exam this semester but that…Continue Reading Semester Two of EEE, One Final Exam!
Believe it or not, semester one is over! A big congratulation to everyone who survived this semester. For me, this semester went incredibly fast and just like other things, it had its ups and downs but EEE didn’t let me down, not even once, and I can’t be happier with my choice of specialisation. In…Continue Reading Semester One of Electrical and Electronic Engineering
12:00 pm, 7th of March 2017: At this exact time, I was sitting somewhere in the middle of the Conference Centre lecture room waiting for my first Electrical Engineering paper (ELECTENG 202). I couldn’t believe how fast the time went by and I’m finally a Part II student doing a specialisation that students describe as…Continue Reading Breadboards & Multi-Metres
Hi everyone! My name is Parsa and I’m a Part II Electrical and Electronic Engineering student. I have always been passionate about helping students younger than myself going through the exact same thing I did. That’s why I am here to pass on my experience of doing Electrical and Electronic Engineering at UoA to future…Continue Reading Parsa’s introduction
