i'm planning to do bachelor of environments + Master of environmental engineering

You've probably heard that Monash is a lot more practical than UoM. Like rustic said, I'm curious as to how often engineering students would utilize the wind tunnel/synchrotron, and whether it is really does enrich the learning experience.

I did 20 experiments within my COMMERCE degree during a three year duration. A third year Monash civil engineering student was suprised as to how much practical stuff I had done.

Practical in the sense that monash makes every engineering student complete 12 weeks of vacation work at an engineering firm. Don't think melbourne does this.

Don't be fooled by the bullshit title, "master of .... engineering', it's only just a name. You'll still have the same qualifications as someone that completed a bach of engineering at monash (in less time too)

I highly doubt this is the point of difference. Any half-decent graduate will have looked for vacation work. 85%+ of melb uni graduates will have completed an internship before they graduate.

and thx, i think people have already realised m.e graduates do the exact same subjects as a b.eng graduate, with a bit more depth in physics, chem/relevant sciences.

wont employers also be fooled by the "master of .... engineering"

iffets12345:
But employers will have an eng back ground themselves yea? So like, they'll kinda know what the system is like. Lost of dentists/doctors I know, know about the Biomed issue.
Anyways, this thread is scaring me.

cohen:
This is slight off-topic, but could you complete a double degree (Software engineering/Science (majoring in physics probably)) at UoM? I've had a look at Monash's Bachelor of engineering/Science, but software engineering isn't available in that double degree (only computer systems is)

Where did you pull that figure from?


I'm just saying, why waste another year of your life at uni, when you could already be working?
