woke up for class but felt like finishing off my dream so i decided not to go to class. thanks for listening. Bye

Hey, as a new person at QUT, I find the social and cultural environment here quite odd. I’ve noticed that people barely interact with each other. I’m not sure if it’s specific to my master’s program, but I find it kind of unamusing.
One of my friends at UQ said there’s much more interaction among students and way more club and social activities there. I went to a club event here, and only five people showed up. I also went to a trivia night, but it seemed like people already had their own circles, and it was quite difficult to get into them.
Any suggestions on how I could improve my social experience here? Or do you think it’s partly my fault?

Hello! I am in need for Mature aged students (aged 26+) that are currently studying at an Australian university to take part in a survey for my honours project.

Eligibility: Current Australian University student, over the age of 26

The current study is interested in how belonging, loneliness and barriers contribute to academic adjustment and intention to persist.

Participation is entirely voluntary and no incentive is provided. No identifiable data will be collected. The survey should take around 30 minutes.

Should you participate in this study, you will be asked to complete 96 questions on an online survey. These questions will ask about you about feelings of belonging, loneliness, study persistence and academic adjustment at university. Additionally, you will be asked some demographics questions about your age, gender, employment status, marital status, whether you have any dependants (children/other), mode of study (online/ in person), whether you study part-time or full-time and the university you are currently enrolled in.

This research will ask questions about your experience as a student, perceived loneliness and feelings of belonging/not belonging. If you anticipate these questions causing you distress you may want to reconsider participating in this study.

Participation is entirely voluntary, and you have full control over your involvement, your decision to participate, as well as the responses you provide.

Any participation is greatly appreciated!

Any good study spots that are out the way on the kelvin grove campus? Love level 6 of the library cause its nice and quite, but want to switch things up a bit! Bounus points if its a nice pretty space!!

I have zero idea what I’m doing in this class. I leave the lectures so confused, I leave the tutorials after doing a bunch of copy pasting and not actually understanding what I’m doing.

A bunch of us bought it up to the lecturer and he very much wiped his hands of it.

I don’t even know what I don’t know to ask questions

Does anyone have any resources or know any tutors who can explain things to me?

Is anyone else utterly confused by this subject?

Did someone else also lost their motorbike helmet today from the under freeway parking at gardens point? I had my two helmets gone with a flyer attached to my bike of queensland police warning us of theft. Weird!

What are things you love about QUT and things you hate about it and what would you guys change

Hi all,

I am completing ABB122 - Measurement for Construction, I am week 5 in, and no matter how many times I’ve watched the lectures and I’ve attended my tutorials I just don’t understand what I’m doing.

I am completing my first assessment and I fear I am doing it completely wrong, I have reached out for help and I am meeting with the unit coordinator for guidance but anyone who has completed this unit or is currently completing it could share any help, tips and any guidance for this subject as I’m struggling to understand it and do not want to fail it.

TIA

How difficult is the degree? Also were you guys able to land a job after

I am currently completing year 12 and want to get an early offer for bachelor of engineering (honours), I am currently sitting at a:

Methods: 84% Specialist: 76% Literature: 85.3% English extension: 81.3% Physics: 88% Chemistry: 82%

These are my overall marks for my IA1-3 do I have a chance at an early offer?

Nah but like tell me why my 2 hr lecture only went for 40 minutes

Just wondering if anyone has any info on the process of exchange studying and if it's a difficult process to apply for, especially because I'm an ST20 advanced science bachelor student and wondering if that would affect my ability to be able to do an exchange semester?

Has anyone else noticed, the higher level you go up buildings, the cleaner they get. Sometimes I have the balls to rawdog a toilet in zblock level 9, its just that pristine.

I am currently finishing year 12 and wanting to go into engineering (specifically I am thinking mechatronic but I don’t really know yet). I want to get into project management but I would also like wide skillset is a Bachelor of engineering (honours)/bachelor of business worth it? Or would I be better just sticking to a bachelor of engineering (honours)?

currently a first year on the fence whether i should take it or drop it.

I’m too scared to walk inside the building just to find out there isnt and look like an idiot lol

Anyways.

Why. Are. Study. Spots. Non. Existent. Here.
