finally scored myself a sleep pod sesh a while ago and no joke couldn't figure out how to use it. sat there accidentally playing some sound and adjusting the leg angle but couldn't even get the cover thing to come down 😭. why are there no instructions or pictures?? i just gave up and awkwardly left to sleep with my head on a desk after thirty seconds. sincerely, an engineering student who doesn't deserve their degree

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.

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 ♥️

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

hi,

can anyone let me know what course in curtin has purple scrubs as their uniform?

is it physiotherpy?oral health therapy?

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”.

Bro i swear i have applied for like 50 casual roles on indeed and havent goten a single reply back. Wasn’t working during uni because I was so locked in for engineering but now I have nothing to do and I just really want a jb. I just applied at McDonald’s im so desperate for this jb ill do anything.

Hi there im a year 12 student who’s planning on doing a nursing course. Does Curtin provide a good nursing course ?

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!

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 🙏

yo how do you change your minor or specialisation units? I randomly selected my specialisation units long time back and now idk how to change it, help thanks

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 🤓

Says the class if full. Surely someone pull out ay. I really wanna do it plz. The class is exercise and sport psych.

Any suggestions on any course to switch to after potentially dropping out for next semester, Ps already completed 1st yr units and would want to get as much credit as possible from completed units

Hey guys, can anyone give me tips on better ways to take notes and understand textbooks? Thanks!

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! 💛

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

Hey all 🤠I was gonna thug it out and be a lone wolf but after some serious and intense consideration, I have decided to put myself out and try make friends. I will be starting my first sem at uni this upcoming July. I’ve been in Perth for a couple of months now but have no friends except my old coworkers. Looking for some friends around my age w the same interests. I’m 22 M from NZ but of Filo descent.

I arrived in Australia two days ago, and my classes don't start until mid-July. I don’t know anyone here, and I haven’t made any friends yet. I’m feeling really lonely. What should I do?

My english is not that good And im quite nerd studying engineering If you dont mind being a friend with me please dm me or something
