If the admission office doesn't want to take your application, bring your result to the Undergraduate Admission Tutors of Civil Engineering (probably can find out on our website), they will be more than happy to help you out in the application for that result!

By "Undergraduate Admission Tutors of Civil Engineering" do you mean the real thing in Nottingham U or a website?

They are people. LOL, there will be 1 (or maybe 2) lecturer(s) being allocated as the undergraduate admission tutor. Their job is to screen the applicants especially for those borderline cases. That being said, they have the power to admit or disallow anyone.

Only if the admission office is not helpful, i.e. do not want to accept your application.

Guys, what kind of broadband do you use during your time in Semenyih? Someone recommended me to use landline Maxis. What kind of other service provider you recommend since it has a lot of broadband provider, but I do not know which one is better.
*
hey bro~ maxis landline only available in tts3 but its pretty good la. if u plan to game stick to landline. for browsing and stuff i guess p1 is not bad either. as far as i know tts is fully covered by p1, but got unstability issues and stuff


Added on September 5, 2011, 4:39 pmhey guys biggrin.gif

i/m currently renting a hse with a fren in bandar sunway semenyih.
its a 4 room house but we were thinking of using 1 room upstairs like a gaming room and there is a vacancy for 1 room downstairs. its a single bedroom and u also have the downstairs bathroom all to ur self laugh.gif
we're still undecided as to rent 2 or 1 rooms so juz contacts us if u are interested.

anyway bbs is not very near uni say about 5-10 min drive so if u got car even better. if u dun well, u can always tumpang from us. both of us are year 3 mech eng students. bbs is pretty nice and has a more homely environment compared to as tts la. but tts is of course more convenient lol.

if interested kindly juz pm me or reply to this post and i'll get back to u asap thumbup.gif cheers

Yeah was scratching my head over that as well.

I can see the Provost is a bit obsessed with the rankings. He sent an email when the ARWU was released as well. LOL.

Hello guys, newbie here.
So, I'll be urm, well, studying Mechanical Engineering, Year 1 at UNMC, and urm, I'm just curious about the timetable and grouping and residence and a lot more. So I'm just gonna list them here, and hope that you jolly good fellas will answer my questions ^^ thank you in advance

1. I got the offer for accomodation at Tioman Hall. It says to print out the email and bring it to them with the payment when I'm moving in, and its supposed to be 17th for the first day of moving in. Is there anything else that I need to bring, other than myself and my stuffs? Any documents that they did not list which I'm supposed to bring?

2. Registration for the study on 20th is just bringing the unconditional form, documents like certificates and money only right? Anything else? I saw someone saying something about medical check up...... Now I'm kinda worried cuz' I didn't know that we need one to enrol into UNMC. Any other documents?

3. Tioman Hall will be where I'm staying later. So urm, I got the single ensuited bathroom or something. Its 2 rooms sharing 1 toilet. Question is, can I cook over there? Is there any problems with pest? INTERNET? I heard its going to be very slow over there. So can I like, get other internet package over there and how much would it cost cuz' they never did mention it on the website.

4. I'm going to do Mechanical Engineering, year 1 as stated before... I did 2 years of Mech Eng in University of Toronto, before concluding that Canada isn't for me... So, question is, will the syllabus be a lot different? I've read the courses name, and it seems vaguely similar to the ones I did there, so it shouldn't differ much right? I mean, math is math, dynamics is dynamics, shouldn't be much difference in the syllabus right?

5. Portal will have to wait till I'm registered since I don't have any info. I'll got those infos during registration eh?

So....I know I wrote a lot, and I hope you can answer them. Another thing is, basically, I just have to rot at home until 17th, bring the email sent by residence, my stuffs, payment and move in. Then spend a few more days rotting and getting to know people until 20th, register, bring the unconditional offer letter, certificates, payment and get to meet seniors, and wait for classes to begin. That's basically everything right?

Thank you again for answering my questions ^^


Oh btw, I'm wondering if any seniors from Mechanical Engineering is selling any textbooks for the new sem, and if they are relevant cuz' I understand that the uni changes the textbook yearly, same thing but different edition, which kinda messed up the whole numbering, so just wondering if they're still relevant and usable.
If you are selling em, please send a reply to me, thanks ^^

1. and 2., if you are not told to bring any extra documents, then you do not need to. Don't worry about forgetting any document though, they want your money and likely they'll still take you and ask you to submit later. I am entering my Year 4, I have yet to send in my passport size photos!
(Beware for the accommodation though, they are bloodily bloodied bloody-like bloody management. Just prepare well for that. Got money their eye will open already)
One more thing, the university don't accept cash for tuition fee payment. Bring a cheque or credit cards (earn extra points!). Accommodation accepts cash though.

4. Yes, they are pretty similar. I even think you should apply to see if you can join Year 2 instead (since you have done 2 years in a reputable university). Have you told the university that you have completed that 2 years? If no, please consider the Mechanical undergraduate admission tutor, Dr Yap or Dr Cheah. Their emails here: http://www.nottingham.edu.my/Engineering/D...ple1/index.aspx

3. You can cook in the shared public kitchen, although I don't think that is a good idea. You'll know. Free internet at 128kbps, more speed with more money. P2P blocked. Try to look for SNS service in the website. Pest wise, ground floor is more problematic, but I don't think you can run away from cockroaches or what. They are always there!

If you do not stay too far from Semenyih (as in within KL or NS area), you could just come on 17th to register, and come again at 20th. It's extremely boring without friends right?

As for textbooks, Year 4 Mechanical Engineering senior is here to tell you, "Textbook? What?" Library is okay.
