Hey guys, I’m a domestic student (English is my second language) and I’ve deferred this year, starting engineering next year. Just wondering what uni life’s actually like? Is it easy to make mates? Keen to meet some new people too.

hi guys, i can’t find my macbook and the last time i remembered using it was in Club Hub, the room with the mirror. My dance department and I used it for dance practice and now it’s completely disappeared. it’s a grey macbook with a clear cover and PsyDuck sticker on it. Unfortunately it is not connected to findmyiphone…Please let me know if you ever see it💔

dumb question guys but when do comp1005 classes run on fridays. tomorrow is litterally my last chance to get my prac marked and i cant find other class times anywhere

hmmmm...Does UWA know something Curtin don't?

Other than the most obvious answer than "The Computer Labs" (which i don't know where they are, and not sure if I have access to them since I am not doing I.T.), is there anywhere on campus where I can connect my laptop up to a 2nd monitor via the usual HDMi chord?

I am currently a third year mechanical engineering student doing a flexible minor, and I have two spots left. What are the two easiest units that I can do? Preferably a commerce unit with no exam and really easy assessments that require little to no effort

I have mid sem happening next week, but I’m planning to defer it as I’m really sick right now. Is there a deferred mid sem period or is it whenever the unit coordinator decides to place the deferred midsem?

I pulled up to uni at 11 and left at 5pm. when I arrived there was a black/grey big bmw with its lights on and engine running and there was no one inside. When I left at 5pm it was the same thing in the same spot😭 I feel crazy. The lights were 100% on at least and I’m sure the engine was on unless I misplaced the sound TWICE but there were no other cars with people inside nearby, and there was definitely AN engine on. This was green hockey stadium parking btw

Hey my minor is essentially 4 electives but I cannot enroll in any first year units is thi how it goes or do I have to get permission to take first year units. Btw I have only done 8 first year units so I stk have 2 left

As in the title, I was sick this week and had 30 hrs off my current placement. UC said there will be compensating clinical hours arranged by school in a later stage of my study. How does it work? Is there any other paperwork for me to fill in besides PebblePad and Sonia? Is it possible for me to know when will the compansating hours happen? (I'm planning for a week of vacation after exam weeks.)

Any help or advice is appreciated!

My unit outlines state they EXPECT an attendance of at least 80%. Not that i believe im below this line, but say this 80% expectation wasn’t met, is it possible the unit can be failed? None of my coordinators have said anything about it, and if they have i wouldn’t remember. This is specifically for an education degree.

Thank you all 😛

Asking any students who have done semester 1 for BH-PHARM. I am going away from the 13th of march to 3rd of April on a family holiday that I don’t want to miss. I have already completed HUMB1000 and CMHL1000 so that leaves the 2 units of PHRM1000 and PHAR1002. I was just wondering if missing nearly 3 weeks of workshops and fieldworks in those 2 units would put me at a massive disadvantage

Thanks for any response

(Posting this for myself).

In case I cannot download an article, the probability of downloading them through here is much higher.

If I submit my prac tests before the due date, I can get it marked any time right? I haven’t had the chance to go to the labs bc of personal reasons, and I’ve got two that I need marked. Thank you

Hello, I am an upcoming international student at Curtin for Masters of Predictive Analytics this july intake. If any other international student is reading this who will be attending Curtin in July doesn't matter the course, I would love to connect through DMs.

Hello, I’m coming to study at Curtin this July semester and I’m currently arranging housing. I just wanted to ask how on campus housing compares to off campus housing like which is better money wise and experience wise. Since I don’t know anyone in the area yet, would staying on campus help with meeting people, or is it pretty much the same as off campus?

Also, are there any on campus housing options I should avoid?

Just looking for any advice to help guide me through this process. Thank you so much!!
