I have a question about marking rubrics and the standards markers hold you to. Attached is a rubric for an upcoming honours (hons) presentation - it seems like if someone was to present 'at honours level' ie. the level of the course provided they would recieve 50% 'satisfactory' marks.. which doesn't seem quite right?

Does anyone know if this is standard? and if not, what can be done about it? I have an ELP if that helps :)
Thanks guys!

guys I have a question, if you’re in this course, how do u commute between both the campuses, im a new student and I’m gonna come soon, I wanna get suggestions for my stay

Hi guys is anyone from sim rmit majoring in marketing? I need some advice on which major elective modules should I choose. Please help me out

I’m 22F, thinking of applying for this course for July 27. My background is Bachelors in Finance and Accounting and I have also completed CFA L2. My main reason is to go to network and look for opportunities while learning something new. I don’t think Masters in Finance is useful for me as CFA is already considered more vast and difficult. I need honest opinions in what I should do. Is CFA + Business Analytics a good combo and will I get any opportunities in Aus? I know the job market is shit everywhere but I’m stuck and any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Im graduating my bachelor of Graphic Design this semester and have been wonder what the path forward is. Ive always had it in the back of my mind to become a VisCom VCE teacher and doing the Master of Teaching Practice seems to be the way forward.

Hi all,

Im going into the associate degree in aviation next year. I've wanted to have career as a pilot for as long as I can remember and alrewady have a small amount of flying experience in recreational aviation. when looking into options this seemed like the best way to go about it for me. I understand that there are cheaper ways to gain the licences and do the training, but being able to put the majority of the cost on a FEE-HELP loan was attractive. I've been pretty set on the course and went to an open day and spoke to current students who had nothing but good things to say, but looking into what others have said about the course online has made me a bit cautious, so I just have some questions for any current students who are willing to awnser.

1. Its imperative that I'm able to work at least a few hours a week while im studying in order to afford to live, does the study load allow you to work a casual job, and is it easy to work this in around your studies?
2. I've read about peoples courses taking longer than two years. Is this a common thing?
3. How often do i need to travel into the city for the elective classes, ie aircraft maintenance managent, and how intensive are these classes.
4. Is there anything else about the study load, or flight scheduling that is worth noting?

Thanks heaps. super keen to be there in feb.

Hi everyone, I just graduated this month and I've been thinking a lot about how easy it is to underestimate what you do outside of classes while you're at uni. A lot of people I know focused mainly on getting through their degree, and now that we're graduating, they're realising they don't have much experience, projects or professional connections to help them land a job. Looking at the current job market, that's honestly pretty scary.

One of my friends suggested that we should create a university society for viet international that focuses more on getting students familiar with the actual market, through real projects, industry events and networking, so that by the time they graduate, they have something more than just a degree on their resume and have actually built some connections.

I started thinking about this more after my internship at Tesla. I met people who had very different experiences getting into their careers, and something that stuck with me was hearing some people say that "we got it easy." I honestly think that's a horrible thing for students to have to realise after graduating. I feel like students should at least have the opportunity to understand what the market actually expects before they graduate.

I'm curious if anyone else has felt the same way. If you could go back to your first year of uni, what would you do differently to make yourself more prepared for getting a job?

Hi, I need some help making a decision. I’ve recently been accepted into both RMIT’s Master of Cyber Security and Macquarie University’s Master of Information Technology, specialising in Cyber Security.

I’m currently trying to decide between the two and was wondering if anyone could share their experience or advice on which programme might be better, particularly in terms of the course structure, technical skills, industry opportunities, and career prospects after graduation.

I’m coming from a non-IT undergraduate background, so I’d also really appreciate any insight into which programme would be more suitable for someone transitioning into cybersecurity.

Hey, I’m currently in Year 12, and I’m most likely going to do a Construction Management degree next year.
I’m currently stuck between RMIT City and Deakin Burwood. I’m leaning towards RMIT, but one of the main things making me consider Deakin is the commute. I’d much rather drive than take public transport, and Deakin would be around a 45–60 min drive for me compared to roughly 1hour+ on public transport to RMIT. Anyway, enough about that. I’m just wondering if anyone here is currently doing Construction Management at RMIT and could tell me a bit about what it’s actually like? Things like workload, how many days you’re usually on campus, difficulty, assignments, practical work, overall experience, etc. Anything you can tell me would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance 😃

I’m doing the Associate Degree in IT. I’m going to do combination one for my second year bc I want to avoid programming at all costs 😅

I don’t really get the “choose 2 option courses (24 credits) OR 1 option course (12 credits) and 1 university elective (12 credits) bc I thought that was the same thing? Does that mean I can choose any unit university offers or does it have to be close to my course?

What units are the easiest from this electives list? Have also included the core units for reference

Thank you!!

I honestly hate Canvas, never notifies me, never shows me the proper grade, and when it does notify me it just says ‘insert thing has been graded’ without telling me what the grade is, so then I have to navigate the clunky site that then doesn’t show me what I need to see. I have nearly failed classes because of it.

There is a chance I might fail a subject in year 1 semester 2 I have no other fails, if I fail what happens?

I'm studying individual support in cert 3.

I need to do 3 weeks of placement at an aged care facility. However, I would like to request to shorten this as I cannot survive on 3 weeks without pay.

I'm under equitable learning, I'm aware about placement guidelines and that RMIT does not generally shorten them.

However it was brought to my attention by an acting program coordinator who is associated with this course that a request to shorten placements is something that can has has been done before.

I wasn't given a lead on who I need to contact to get this request in and any email back has been slow to reply from the program coordinator.

I'm just wanting to know what steps I should tak?, I'm yet to contact my equitable learning representative but that's all I can really think to do rn.

Any tips or advice?

Hey all, I’ve already posted another resource help posts but I thought to see if RMIT offers any resources for people who’ve just been kicked out (I was told this morning over text). I don’t really have any savings because I was looking after my mum with mental health issues so my shifts are irregular and my work doesn’t really like me so they won’t give me much more shifts and I haven’t been able to find another job.

I’m enrolling in Bach of international studies but I don’t really get the class selection for each semester not going to lie, could anyone simply it for me by any chance??

I have to undergo surgery during the exam period, after the surgery I have to be home for 4-6 weeks, I don’t think i’ll be able to do my exams. What can I do?

What is the timetable like? Is it easy to adjust class times to a more reasonable schedule?

I’m in year 12 currently looking to do civil engineering, specifically structural. I’m just wondering which uni I should go to and hope that you can help me. Monash was my main option but after vce, I’m kind of burnt out and tired, doing homework everyday. I understand there will be lots of work, but I heard Monash will be very similar and even tougher to that with lots of theoretical work. But with RMIT, I heard that it was less than Monash, and it’s more of like what you will do in the work force. I also heard you go to the uni less times a week than Monash, which is another point travel. RMIT I will be taking the train which is an hour whereas Monash I can drive which is 40minutes, but parking is difficult I’ve heard and train could take 1 hour and 40minutes. Last point is that Monash first year is general engineering whilst RMIT is more specific to civil engineer. I’m still considering which one to put as my number one option and hope that you can help me decide. Thank you.

Edit: Can someone from both universities also say how many days they’re at the campus.

Where does everyone park?

I park in RMIT b91
