Hi, jackycrazy.
I'm currently a student at Monash (in my 4th year now), and this is what I can tell you.
The eastern parking (the free one) is good in the sense that it's free, however the conditions of the roads in that parking is not in top condition. The western parking (RM2 parking) will cost you money, but it may be worth paying the RM2, as the security there looks to be slightly better than the one at eastern parking, plus the road condition is much better, so no need to worry about your car tyre puncturing or whatnot.
I never tried the new sunway carpark, but yes, you'll be able to take the canopy walk to Monash. However, you'll have to walk much more than compared to the western and eastern parking. For 8am classes, this obviously isn't the best choice.
Of course, the eastern parking will be the most crowded, as it's free. For me, during the semester, I use both. If I have an 8am class, I'll be able to park at the eastern parking. However, if my class starts a bit later (eg. 9 or 10am), then I have no choice but to use the western parking.

For tomorrow, if you come at 9.30am, I would guess that the free parking would be full already, as the number of new students and parents would easily fill the free parking. So probably you'll have to pay RM2.

I'll be at the orientation tomorrow helping out, as one of the members of the student council. Hope you have fun this week in orientation!  smile.gif

1) May I know if one transfers from Monash Sunway to Monash Australia for only the final year, will he/she graduate with degree from Sunway or Monash campus???

2) What about the course fee for final year in Australia? Follow sunway campus fee or pay australian fees?

3) When to start applying?
*
1) if u r talking about the granting campus then it depends on course, case to case basis... if you're talking about place of graduation... then msia or aus is possible

2) as though you're transferring, aus campus fees

3) asap

by the way,
if you are planning to take business degree, the faculty will advise you to transfer after 1 year or at most 1.5 years.
While transfer only at final year is still possible, but you might have to redo some units... since according to them, Australian units are more difficult.  rclxub.gif
*
not that it is more difficult.. the degree offered in msia vs aus is diff... therefore to qualify for the aussie one you got to take certain modules that isnt avail in msia... if you had taken all common modules and transfer then it is not a prob..

Hey guys, quick question, how hard is the maths for Computer Science? And how hard is Computer Science in general in Monash?
*
there's no baseline.. so how hard is very subjective... if you compare with other schools in msia, it is generally harder

QUOTE(idr @ Aug 24 2014, 03:24 PM)
hey I just received full offer for biotech, any tips or anything about the course, timetable, books, lectures,etc icon_question.gif ? That would really helpful and any tips for international student? I am really nervous. Thanks!

Yes, you're right, there's no baseline, well in that case, how competitive is the Computer Science major? How is the failure rate?
*
much harder than other schools and drop out rate also pretty high.. but bear in mind that the students enrolling for these course have lower req. as compared to lets say eng. or med.

well it is good, but whether does it make economic sense to pursue it at monash is another question..

Means it doesnt worth to spend more than 110k to study in monash? then wat is the better option?
*
i always recommend ppl to go monash as it is a prestigious school.. however we have to face reality, whether you're able to make that tuition fees back.. in the long term it is definitely worth it.. you will be part of an elite group of ppl in msia but if you have to take a loan or it is a huge burden for your parents then better not

4 of my family members including me grad from monash msia.. i am in sg, my sis is in sydney and 2 cousins are doing extremely well as their own bosses.. non from food sc though.. my dad did food tech like 30 years ago? that time not many highly qualified ppl so he did well in mnc... these days i dont know

for engineering or business or med or pharma it is not a prob... those fields pays well in msia... food sc? i dont think so... what's your results anyway? i might be able to recommend another option..

any of the big 4 banks in Australia is good but I recommend Commbank since they have the largest ATM network in Australia(including in Monash Caulfield and Clayton campus).
I think there are a few apartment blocks or houses near Monash Caulfield (within walking distance). have a look at marketplace to get an idea of the rental rates.living in clayton could be cheaper but its 30min away from caulfield

The Australian National University has moved into the top 25 universities in the world, jumping two rankings, with seven other Australian universities appearing in the top 100.

The QS World University rankings, which take into account, research and teaching at the university as well as employability post-degree, were released on Tuesday with ANU coming equal 25th on the list. The list was topped by Massachusetts Institute of Technology for the second year in a row.

The University of Melbourne was the second Australian university in the rankings, but dropped from 31st last year to 33 for 2014. The University of Sydney jumped one spot from 38 to 37 while the University of Queensland remained in 43rd place.

The University of New South Wales jumped four places from 52 to 48 while Monash University moved from 69th to 70th. The University of Western Australia also dropped in the rankings from 84 to 89 while the University of Adelaide was in 100th place, jumping from equal 104th in 2013.

The next Australian university on the list, Macquarie University, came in at 254th.

ANU acting vice-chancellor, Professor Margaret Harding, said the university’s top Australian ranking owed a lot to the quality of teachers at the university.

“Rankings are imperfect measures, and move around year to year, but they do tell you the company you are keeping,” she said in a statement.

“It is great to be alongside other great universities of the world like the National University of Singapore (22), Ecole normale supérieure, Paris (24), Duke University (equal 25) the University of California, Berkeley (27).”

Harding singled out Dr Steve Lee from the Research School of Engineering as an example of innovation at the university. Lee won this year’s Eureka prize for science for the invention of a cheap lens which can convert a smartphone into a microscope.

She said the international nature of the university was a fundamental element its global reputation.

“ANU brings Canberra to the world and the world to Canberra,” she said.

“That global nature carries across our teaching and research, from Nobel prize-winning research in astronomy and medical science, to hosting world leaders, including most recently the prime minister of Japan, Shinzo Abe.”

The QS rankings use six indicators to compile the results. These include data on staff to student ratios and how often the university’s research is cited, along with the results from global surveys of academics and employers.
