Title: Aerospace Engineering?
Post by: Pedestrian on December 17, 2009, 03:15:54 pm

I'm thinking of doing Aerospace Engineering at RMIT.. as opposed to Engineering at UoM as they do not have Aerospace, is anyone currently undertaking this course?

Strengths, weaknesses?

Come do it at Monash, we have much better facilities, lecturers and learning environment.

EDIT: Just saw your post about missing Aerospace Engineering at Monash.

Here's what you do. You have 1st preference as Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering and 2nd preference as Bachelor of Engineering. If you miss Aerospace, and get into straight Engineering, you can actually still do Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering from the BEGINNING.

All Monash Engineering degrees share what's called the "common first year" where EVERY stream does the same units as each other first up. You come do the first year of the Bachelor of Engineering, which is EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE FIRST YEAR OF AEROSPACE ENGINEERING (except for one unit, and you can take that as an elective!) and then if you get an average of 65-70 or more, you can just transfer into Aerospace Engineering and go straight into 2nd year :)

Good luck with it.

Is that the same for all universities?
