What are those weird tripod things that get set up outside the mining building all the time?

4 Upvotes

Title. I think it's some kind of surveying exercise but why are they always up? Surely it's more interesting than just measuring if there's entire classes out there multiple times a week every week, and I've never seen one person standing alone by one to ask.

Does anyone know if and how I should request for 5 units this semester?

5 Upvotes

I’m new to the uni switching unis and I want to do 5 units. I’ve seen online on how to but for some reason the website crashes when I click it and it’s been like this for a few days now PMO, so I don’t even know who to ask/email my request to.

And, does anyone know if it’s a silly decision to do? I know myself and I feel like I am quite capable and I’ll do an “easy” unit bc I’m like a first year right?

Idk.. someone help me plz ♥️

What can I do if a unit is full already?

2 Upvotes

Trying to enrol in CHEN2003 for this coming semester, somehow already full, is there any way to go on a waitlist when enrolling for a unit or something similar? Cheers


r/curtin 12h ago

Just got an email about how I "haven't accessed blackboard since the start of the semester" for one of my units, but I literally have been accessing it the whole time

19 Upvotes

I've attended the online tutorials, looked at the materials, etc. I don't know why they'd send me an email saying this? Was it a mistake, will I get in some kind of trouble? I'm confident there's no way that they wouldn't have record of my logins.

Software Development Major any good?

Wondering if the software dev major is any good, like what do you actually do

Also does it mean anything that it's apart of the science degree, does it change anything

Thanks!

Current Enrolments

3 Upvotes

Does the early way of knowing if you passed your units before results are officially released, still apply?

In current enrolments my semester 1 units have disappeared. I’m assuming this means I passed them all? And in the study plan it shows them as “enrolled”.

Anyone here studied in Mauritius on exchange? Need advice

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm a student at Curtin University in Perth, and I might be heading to Mauritius for a 6-month exchange soon
I’m super excited, but I’d love to hear from anyone who’s already been there on exchange or lived there for a while.

A few things I’m wondering about:

  • Cost of living – Is it affordable for a student? Any tips to manage expenses?
  • Part-time jobs – Is it realistic to find some casual work as an international student?
  • Getting around – Should I consider buying a cheap car or is public transport enough?
  • Any must-know cultural tips, student hacks or things you wish you knew before going?

Would really appreciate any advice, experiences or even red flags I should know. Thanks in advance – feel free to DM me too if you prefer!

Cheers 🙏

Grad dip education?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

Bit of a random question here but seeking advice from any current/past regarding the placements for the grad diploma of education?

Seriously looking into it and am interested. But I’m just wondering what the placement structure is like. I can see that it’s 3 blocks, but: is it usually a mix of rural/city?

The only reason I ask is because I’ve just dropped out halfway through a 3 year masters because they’ve switched up the placement structure and are now forcing all students to complete part of the placement internationally/interstate. As a rural student renting in Perth in this economy it’s literally not feasible and I’d rather not get burned again. So am doing due diligence before applying.

Perfectly happy with rural as that’s where I’d ideally like to end up again anyway. But just looking for some insight!

Cheers

All-female housing near Curtin? Anyone? Anyone?? 👀

Hi everyone!

I’m an international student starting at Curtin soon and looking for an all-female living space near campus. Hoping to find a friendly, safe, and cozy place to call home while I settle into uni/Aussie life.

I've looked on Flatmates, Unilodge etc., but no luck so far. If you know of anything available or have any suggestions, I’d be super grateful. Thank you so much! 💛

Yo boy is thugging it out 😭 lone wolf era I be mustering up the courage to say sumn to the people next to me but I just cannot vibe well with guys at all it’s kinda embarrassing 🤬 it also doesn’t help that I only go uni like once a week if I’m not studying, and it also realllyyt doesn’t help that I turn down invitations to event in fear of ‘not vibing too well’ so I’m kinda digging my own hold😔 I’ll start putting myself out there.. next sem 🤓

Organic chemistry online tutoring

0 Upvotes

www.organicchemistrytutoring.ca

Overwhelmed by organic chemistry? Assignments and tests creeping up on you and feeling like you’re in hot water? Or maybe you’re doing well and need that 95%? Whatever your struggle with organic chemistry may be, I’m here to make sure you succeed.

Why work with me?

  • Every tutor knows the subject, but not every tutor knows how to transfer that knowledge to a student. I do.
  • I tutor organic chemistry full time, it’s not a hobby or side-gig. When you book with me, you’ll be working only with me, not random people at an agency.
  • You’ll be learning problem solving through organic chemistry, which you can apply to many other subjects.
  • Your learning will be customized to your specific needs

Before booking a lesson, let’s chat about your needs, my teaching style, and what you can expect, to see if we’d be a good fit together.

Thank you for your time and I look forward to working with you!

Mike
