EDIT 15/01: Welcome to all new students! Feel free to post here for advice about unit (subject) selection, or simply tell us what units you'll be studying this year! You might also find the Subject Reviews thread helpful - it's a place where students have shared their experiences in units they've completed.
If you haven't checked it out already, we've also got a thread dedicated to advice for new students in 2018.
---------
(Am I too early for this?... ::))
Seeing as re-enrolment for current students is due next Wednesday, I thought it might be a good time to start a thread to see what everyone's picking for next year :)
This can also be the place where we can ask questions/advice about unit selection.
Also don't forget to re-enrol before 29/11 to avoid the late fee!
We can bump this when the VTAC offers come in ;D
Semester 1
BMS1031 - Medical biophysics
BMS2021 - Human molecular cell biology
DEV2011 - Early human development from cells to tissues
MTH1030 - Techniques for modelling
CHM1011 - Chemistry I
Applying to overload in chem 1 since I'm currently 'missing' one unit (since I transferred courses mid-year), and in biomed, I think that the earlier I get this out of the way the better.
Semester 2
BMS1052 - Human neurobiology
BMS2042 - Human genetics
DEV2022 - Human anatomy and development: Tissues and body systems
MTH2010 - Multivariable calculus
-
@VanillaRice: if you transferred courses half-way through this year, does that mean you're a combination of a 1st and 2nd year student next year? :)
I don't get any choice with subjects...so PTY2031 (Sem 1 - cardiorespiratory physio) and PTY2042 (Sem 2 - neuro physio) it is for me haha.

Haha I guess so! Does that mean I'm still a Jaffy? 🤔

I mean, I don't think so...my housemate had a similar situation and just considered herself a second year haha.
We'll give you the benefit of the doubt ;)

Going to underload next year since I can credit my MUEP stuff from year 12 :P
although i still think 3 biomed subjects will be tough.
I also get a few electives in year 3 (one of them can be a 1st year elective) so does anyone know of any first year arts electives similar to EngLang? or ethics? which are relatively light and easy to score in. :)
-
^The Linguistics first-year sequence is similar(ish) to EngLang:
ATS1338 The language game: Why do we talk the way we do?
ATS1339 Describing and analysing language and communication
Re: ethics, you might enjoy one of the first-year Philosophy units:
ATS1371 Life, death and morality (Introduction to philosophy A)
ATS1835 Time, self and mind (Introduction to philosophy B)
I only did ATS1371 of those, but it's a popular (and enjoyable) unit, and easy to pick up - easier than the Ling units IMO.

I'm thinking of doing cross-institutional study for the following bioethics subjects (unimelb doesn't offer philosophy of med or bioethics subjects) in 2019. I heard decent stuff about them and they look interesting :)
• ATS1263: Bioethics: Current controversies
• ATS1264: Bioethics, justice and the law
• ATS2637: Global bioethics

one of my friends did a bioethics subject in sem 1 and said it was interesting and relatively relaxed.
hmm 2019?
anyway i still got a year to think about it and ask around ;D

CHM1011 - Chemistry I
inb4 I'm your demonstrator.
Haha I guess so! Does that mean I'm still a Jaffy? 🤔
JAFFY-dom has nothing to do with time at uni - it's a state of being. 8)

Semester 1:
CHM2911: INORGANIC AND ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
MTH2025: LINEAR ALGEBRA (ADVANCED)
MTH3011: PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
MTH3140: REAL ANALYSIS
Semester 2:
CHM2922: SPECTROSCOPY AND ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
MTH3020: COMPLEX ANALYSIS AND INTEGRAL TRANSFORMS
MTH3051: INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTATIONAL MATHEMATICS
MTH3060: ADVANCED ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
Not sure if should swap something out for mth2222 or etc2520 so I can do some third year stats units in my third year of uni. I'd like to but at the same time there's nothing I really want to remove either. Well I've got the rest of the holidays to think about it anyways.

Tbh, depends what stats units you're interested in. If it's 3230, don't bother, the unit it shit. If it's 3241, if you promise to do some reading over the summer beforehand, the fact that you've done third year real analysis is probably enough for the unit coordinator to be willing to let you bypass the 2222 requirement. Also, if you're thinking of ETC2520, don't - MTH2222 or MTH2232 usually covers you for every single unit that has 2520 as a pre-req. 3251, I haven't done, but likely ditto as for 3241 - anything else is new and I've got no clue, sorry. :S Still, though, would recommend 2232 - it's a fun unit, and a nice look into why stats "works", instead of just giving out a bunch of tests and saying they do for the sake of teaching.

Late to the party but:
Sem 1:
PSC2011: Biochemical Pharmacology
PSC2021: Structural Organic Chemistry
PSC2031: Analytical Methods
PSC2041: Biopharmaceutics
Sem 2:
PSC2012: Molecular Pharmacology
PSC2142: Computational Chemistry
PSC2222: Formulation Chemistry
PSC2232: Colloid Chemistry
2142, 2222 & 2232 are the start of my formulation science specialisation, whereas the rest are all core units.
I was tossing up between 2142 and spectroscopy but this one won out in the end :)

Bump. Another welcome to new Monash students! :)
Let us know what units you'll be studying! If you're not sure on which units you're supposed to pick, or want advice about selecting electives, etc. feel free to post here as well. :)

Hi, I'm starting Bachelor of Psychology (Hon) this year, (nervous as heck), does anyone have any recommendations for electives? Also, since I haven't done VCE Biology before, would it be advantageous for me to take the Biology Bridging Course?
Thanks

What interests you? There's heaps of electives to choose from, so it will depend on what you like :)
I would consider BIO1011 and BIO1022 (part of your first year) to be introductory biology units, and will have a lot of overlap with VCE Biology. As such, I don't think the biology bridging course will be necessary. Don't worry - your course organisers won't leave you high and dry. If VCE Biology was key to success in your course, it really should've been a prerequisite. The lecturers understand that everyone is coming from different levels, so will do their best to cater to those who haven't had experience with biology before :)
Is the Biology Bridging Course recommended by your faculty? If anything, I've heard from others that a good biology textbook will suffice :)

Congratulations! It's normal to be nervous, but you'll get in the swing of things sooner or later.
Your 2 elective units for first year can come from any faculty, so it really depends on your interests. Take a look at this list of areas of study to see what you might like to dabble in, then try to find their respective units in the handbook. Personally, I recommend taking up a language you may have some interest in. A lot of people seem to pick introductory units of languages as electives, and they're quite fun.
I don't think there's a need to take a bridging course. I can't speak about the Biology units, but for the two Psychology units (PSY1011 and PSY1022), there were plenty of people who didn't take up VCE Psych and could still manage to do well. Having VCE knowledge could help you here and there with understanding some concepts, but it is definitely not required to do well. First year units are very much designed with the idea that everyone is new to it, at least in my experience. If you have questions about PSY1011 and PSY1022, I'm happy to answer them through a pm or here.

Thank you for the reply!! I'm thinking of taking Political Psychology and Understanding Human Behaviour as electives this year. The Biology Bridging Course was recommended in the acceptance email I got from the faculty and my parents are bugging me to do it since they know how much I hate bio and haven't done it in two years :-\ I was thinking the same as you, preparing with a good Biology textbook before the semesters starts should ease me in.
Also, I'm following the course map for my degree since it's way easier that way, I've heard some people recommend not following it??

They're free electives, so go for it! :)
A (free) biology resource you might find useful is this. It was suggested as a resource for me last year. I used it for a week or so, but found I was able to follow along with the lectures even without it. I was in a similar situation with biomed (didn't do VCE bio), and honestly I got through first year fine.
Do you know why those students suggested not to follow the course map? You don't really have to follow it, but it's just a bit more work if you don't since you need to order your units so you can meet unit prerequisites, etc.

That's pretty awesome that you sailed through Bio in a biomed degree without taking vce biology :D
I read on another thread that following the course map doesn't let you explore your degree or something but i think it depends on the degree. BPsych is pretty tightly structured so I prefer the course map.

Would also recommend BIO1011/1022. I didn't do VCE Bio (actually I didn't do Year 10 Bio either) and ended up with an extended major in genetics (ie biology). BIO1011/1022 made me go for Honours (now about to start Honours) and I also really enjoyed that biology sequence. :)

Hey just a question about biomed electives. Can I enrol in language electives now, or do I need to submit an application for a diploma of languages before that?
Thanks in advance, and sorry if this is in the wrong place.

If you have room in your degree for out-of-faculty electives, then you can just use those. Assuming that this is your course, it seems that you have 36 points' (6 units') worth of free electives that you can use on languages (or other things).
The diplang adds a year to your study, by allowing you to essentially complete a majors in language - see here.

Ok, thanks for that!

Time, Self, and Mind for second semester is pretty good too!
After doing TSM last year, I just had to use an elective space for LDM this semester.

The prereqs for FIT2081 is "FIT1045, FIT1048, FIT1051, FIT1053, FIT2071 or FIT1002 or equivalent". Does this mean:
1. I must complete all of FIT1045, FIT1048, FIT1051, FIT1053 and one of FIT2071 or FIT1002
OR
2. I must complete one of FIT1045, FIT1048, FIT1051, FIT1053, FIT2071 or FIT1002 (just one unit)?

The key is to look at the word between the last two: FIT2071 or FIT1002. This means you only have to pick one of them :)
Side note: If "or" was replaced with "and", you would have to do all of them.

Semester 1:
ATS1091 German introductory 1
ATS1320 Nations at war: Revolution and empire

ATS1092 German introductory 2
ATS1321 Nations at war: The twentieth century
ATS1326 Contemporary worlds 2
ATS1701 Terrorism and political violence: An introduction
Are these good subjects?

You will love Nations at War. It’s a brilliant subject! Great lecturers and great tutors for both Nation at War units.
I’m still finalising my subject choices but I may or may not see you in either German or IR if I ever decide… ::)

What is everyone's experience with introductory language units? Not entirely decided on my units for this semester, and think I might want to take Introductory Italian 1. How do the workshops/seminars generally run in these units?

Hi, I'm starting at Monash this year (bachelor of arts) and I'm a little confused as to how I pick electives.
I'm planning on doing 2 majors, and supposedly if you do this, you don't do any minors. If so, I think that leaves 2 electives for semester 1. When choosing electives, do I choose them from the minor units list even though I am not doing a minor, for example, ATS1371 Life, death, and morality in Philosophy? Or from the "elective list"? I thought the elective list was only for those doing the subject as a major, but now I'm confused ??? The elective list also generally requires the completion of first-year arts units.

Hey! I’m not 100% on what you mean by the ‘minor list’, but you’d choose electives from different disciplines to your major. For example, if you were going to major in Psychology and Literature, your semester might look like this:
Literature unit
Psychology unit
Philosophy unit (elective)
Linguistics unit (elective).
Last time I checked (which was two years ago, but likely still applies), you can even do electives in your major discipline. (I.e., 8 units gives a major, but you could take 10 units in a certain discipline by using 2 of your electives on your major discipline).
If you let us know the subjects you’re looking at potentially studying, we can let you know whether that’s fine or not? (Also, Life, Death, Morality is an awesome unit!!!)

Generally when courses refer to an 'elective', it means any unit that you are able to enrol into (i.e. meet prerequisites for), so you can pick ATS1371 as one of your electives for first semester. When a unit is listed under a minor/major requirement list, it is not ONLY if you intend to minor/major in the area of study.
Keep in mind if you do 2 majors, you are still required to take at least 4 Arts electives, and 4 electives from any faculty across your course.

In my opinion, it depends on how well you can adjust to university in first semester. Biomed units are typically viewed as quite difficult, with more content crammed into lectures compared to say, BIO1011/1022. I've also heard that IMM2011 is quite a heavy unit, but if you were okay with the immunology part of MUEP bio, you should be able to keep up :)
What you can do is do IMM2011 for say, a week or two, and if it gets too difficult, change it to another elective. In this case, it might be worthwhile looking into other potential electives you might want to swap to, just in case.

BCH2022 - Metabolic basis of human diseases
CHM2922 - Spectroscopy and analytical chemistry
CHM3922 - Advanced organic chemistry
MTH2010 - Multivariable calculus
Anybody who has done any of these got some pointers :D? Also, there's a clash between a workshop in MTH1035 and a lecture in another unit. There is only one available workshop slot for MTH1035 (due to the amount of students I'm thinking ???) so I can't really avoid it. If this doesn't get rectified, would taking MTH1030 and then selecting a different workshop slot (due to more students doing it) be a tenable solution? Surely one can just skip a lecture if there is a clash and watch it later if it was recorded? Thanks!

I did MTH1030, CHM2911 and CHM2922. I think all of these have reviews, so I’ll let them do the talking. If you still really want a personal review, please PM me.
If you ever have a clash, go to the one that requires your attendance and put a reminder to watch the lecture later. If you have a mate in that unit, get their notes and ask them to do you a favour. Or you could just change to MTH1030. Either way.
I’ve had labs over lectures before, no big deal. Just means you have to catch up later.
Side note: Nice line up. So I assume you’re going for Chem major and biochem/ math minor?
The units I’m doing are: BIO4100 - Biology research project and
BIO4200 - Advanced coursework in biology.

i did MTH1030 + MTH2010 (2017) and may write a reveiw if I have some time, didn't do MTH1035 cos cbf doing extra proofs.I think most people would just watch the lecture at home if they really wanted to do 1035.

Side note: Nice line up. So I assume you’re going for Chem major and biochem/ math minor?
Thanks for the response! Yeah hopefully a Chem and Biochem Major :)

I'm still deciding which will be the best Maths for me to do, and was wondering if someone could give me some advice if they've done them. Tossing up between introduction to statistical reasoning or statistical reasoning. I've done Methods in Year 12, but just want a maths that isn't too difficult as I'll probably only be doing it for a semester.

haven't done SCI1020 - Introduction to statistical reasoning but apparently its a massive bludge very very easy to score highly most science students use this to fufill the math criteria.
what unit code is "statistical reasoning"?
MTH1020 is another option which is a spesh equivalent which I think is not worthwhile if you aren't continuing with math.

The unit code of statistical methods is STA1010- I'm really not sure which one to do. I don't want it to be so easy that I get bored, but at the same time I don't want it to be overly difficult.
