Dear Iman Farahbakhsh and all who are considering ...

Dear Iman Farahbakhsh and all who are considering Engineering at UNE,
I have no idea what you are talking about, I am 2/3 of the way through the degree and not once has sheep and cattle been brought up in any of my lectures, rather I have learnt key principles to Civil Engineering that include:
Concrete Design,
Structural Mechanic,
Engineering Dynamics,
Engineering Statics,
Fluid Mechanics,
Chemistry,
Physics,
Hydrology,
Surveying,
Introduction to Civil Infrastructure
and Sustainability of the environment.
I have also had the chance to do work placement with a local Council, and a local Consulting Engineering Firm, during this experience I have been able to apply knowledge that I have learnt through the Engineering Technology Degree, that otherwise I would have no clue.
Yes the cohort is very small but that allows for more individual time with the Lecturers and other students doing the same degree.

In terms of your statement of having to repeat 8 units, I am not sure what Uni that you articulated to, but it states in the Course outline that it is a smooth transition into the USQ Bachelor of Engineering (Civil).
So therefore I feel if you actually put more time into the course and researched into what a Bachelor of Engineering Technology (Civil/Environmental Major) actually is then you would not be leaving such a negative review.

On another note, the degree has been accredited by Engineers Australia who have reviewed the degree and deemed it fit as a suitable 3 Year Engineering Degree.

I love this degree, and recommend it to any person wanting to study Engineering Technology in a regional town.

Cheers
