UNSW top computer science
Amazing university with a great vibe. I'm enjoying my computer science degree and my tutors are awesome. Planning on doing the Master of Information Technology here too after I finish my bachelor's degree. UNSW's Computer Science & Engineering faculty continues to thrive and come at the top for the best in the country, if not the southern hemisphere.
UNSW will always have a special place in my heart
A great uni and now rank 19 worldwide! I love it and I actually found my soulmate there. Highly recommend. It's a big campus with many clubs to join. The library is amazing and staff is really helpful
UNSW science edge
UNSW, is a great place to study and for my field in particular it was quite special. I am apart of the school of BEES, Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences, which was a great part of the campus with great facilities. I wasn't very social outside of my department and not because I didn't want to, I was open to the idea, but nothing drew me in. All the societies felt like lame cliques, and I found the best people to hang out with were the ones besides you in class. Great time overall.
