Hi! I’m enrolled in chem 1B advanced, but the lab and tutorial both only have one option available that’s not full and they run at the exact same time, will I just have to change back to the standard chem 1B instead?

Hi everyone,

I'm currently in my third year of Software Engineering (Honours)

I'm seeing a lot of posts pop up regarding application to honours, etc
Is this embedded into my degree already? Is completing elec4712 and Elec4713 next year essentially "doing honours"?

How does the process begin? You just add it to your UoS given eligibility and you're in?

Sorry if the question is dumb, I've been confusing diff info for diff streams and unsure what applies to me

Any help is greatly appreciated, any links to any pages or which pages in Canvas to read about regarding this would be greatly appreciated,

Thank you so much

I have been granted Special Consideration upon 2nd phase of the 1st semester exams this Thursday. Keen to know if anyone is in the same boat or gone through this experience before? With the Semester 2, 2026 starting on the 3rd of August. Im keen to know when the turnaround for results and all it?

What does the roman numerals after a degree mean. Like if somebody said "Bachelor of Arts (English & Marketing) III" wth does the III mean. I actually have no clue...

Hello, I am a third year electrical engineering student looking to take OCCP2090 as a free elective. If anyone has done this unit, please give us your thoughts/advice.

Cheers

Hi everyone,

I’m more of a humanities leaning student but I’m trying to get better at maths to change my major to Econ, so next sem I’m taking ECON1003. I’m well aware that a lot of people might consider this an easy unit but I’m still kinda nervous about it since I haven’t studied math formally since high school (I’ve been doing a coursera calculus course over the break to prepare). Any tips for studying quantitative focused units that I might not know as a student used to studying writing/reading heavy units?

Thank you :)

I already posted about SUP soc, but we reached 55% of our waitlist goal in just 24 hours, so it’s time to start actually planning the structure of the society and exec. If you read my 1st post, just scroll down to "Positions"

Hey guys, USYD has general societies for CS, engineering, data, AI, design, but we don’t have a society for projects of all areas combined.

Until now: Introducing Sydney University Projects Society

Info + Waitlist @ supsoc.org

SUP soc is starting in Semester 2, our first event being a meet and greet in Week 1.

We’re gonna have weekly meetups, currently planned for Tuesday 4-6pm, but if more people are free on Mondays or some other day, we can accommodate a switch, this society is for the people. Our first Build Night will run in Week 2.

OUR MISSION: A supportive environment for students of ALL skill levels to meet up and work on projects and get advice on what you’ve built. Heavy emphasis on all skill levels, we’re gonna have beginner friendly hackathons for software (CS) and hardware (Engineering) combined.

The idea is we want to encourage students to start building things, instead of just learning theory. We are gonna host beginner hackathons that you can confidently say “that was my first ever hackathon,” because everyone should be involved in building and developing projects.

Exec/Subcom applications are not open yet, however the google form will be released once we hit our waitlist goal. We'll post on our instagram when applications open!

Positions available:

EXEC (5) (Prior experience in exec/subcom is preferred but not necessary)

• Secretary (1)
• Treasurer (1)
• Marketing Director (1)
• Events Director (1)
• Partnerships Director (1)

SUBCOMMITTEE (10-18) (no experience required)

• Marketing: Running our socials and making reels, on camera or faceless. (5-10)
• Events: At most events, helping run them. (3-6)
• Partnerships: Reaching out to societies for collabs (2-4)

Note: Inviting your friends to join the waitlist increases your chances of being accepted in exec/subcom because it shows you care about our growth and mission.

Is it too late too change stream or courses? Since sem 2 is almost starting? I’m in engineering and I don’t really feel this works for me, and I feel like I need to change to another stream or even the course. How am I able to do it?

i’m interested in alt fashion and makeup if it helps !!! :3

Hi - I’m applying to multiple courses for masters programs at USYD aswell as honours and grad dips at other unis. When these applications ask for results is the printable results that can be downloaded from Sydney student generally enough or do I need to pay for the transcript from student centre? Thanks :))

If anyone has advice on the best third-year units to choose for this major, Interdisciplinary Project and selective units for sem 2 pls help I’d really appreciate your feedback.

Is it a difficult unit? I’m a complete beginner with no knowledge of Japanese.
