Secretary says...: Pursuing Studies to UNSW


Assalamualaikum, Salam sejahtera, Salam Ukhwah dan Salam 1Malaysia :)

Good morning to those yang berjaya bangun pagi, hahaha seperti saya, i'm not a morning person, so having morning classes are not my favorite thing to go to...back to the point that i want to make in this post, have you ever decide in pursuing your studies abroad? this i'm asking to my fellow friends in Faculty of Science & Biotechnology (our newest faculty name, by the way)...

While i was browsing trough my internet, i stumble upon a link that leads to UNSW, yes it's University New South Whales...which this university made me reminded of this one annually test that i take from my high school years in Sri Inai KL...that test was a combined of mathematics and science...it was a FUN-A-MENTAL test! and Alhamdulillah i was presented with good grade for that test, x de lah teruk sangat, point average, so i'm not a loser lah...haha, well, this test were imported from the UNSW itself, don't know what was the reason, tapi mungkin untuk menguji EQ student...masa tu tak terfikir pulak nak tanya, but i take the test eventually...so, enough about my little exaggerative story...

This university provide a place for students in FaSBIO to pursue studies in UNSW, one of the university that i suggest for you to choose ;)

there's a faculty called Faculty of Science [http://www.science.unsw.edu.au/] this faculty contain 9 schools ; aviation, materials science & engineering, psychology, biological earth & environmental science, mathematics & science, biotechnology & bio molecular sciences, optometry & vision science, chemistry and physics.

to know more about those schools I've mention, you can easily click on the following links:

You must be thinking WHY STUDY SCIENCE IN UNSW? Well, they've got the answer :

"Our vision is to be Australia's leading international research university with a reputation for excellence in scholarship, learning and the student experience. In 2008 we have almost 8000 overseas students, over 250 sister university partnerships and a growing number of close liaisons with industry, commerce and professions (nationally and internationally). Our programs are relevant to today's ever-changing world and our students are in touch with the demands of their chosen professions."

And they even got the reputation to brag about! :

"UNSW scored highly in the 2009 Good Universities Guide and was awarded the maximum five-star rating for ten key performance indicators, including research grants, research intensity, student-staff ratio, staff qualifications, graduate starting salary, student success in gaining employment, teaching quality, acquisition of generic skills, cultural diversity and positive graduate outcomes.

This score was based on research grants, research intensity, student-staff ratio, staff qualifications, graduate starting salary, student success in gaining employment, teaching quality, acquisition of generic skills, cultural diversity and positive graduate outcomes.

UNSW is described by the The Good Universities Guide as "one of the heavyweights of Australian higher education...it's big, tough to get into and ... (offers) an intense, rich tertiary experience". For more information visit the Good Universities Guide web site.

Science at UNSW has been ranked No. 1 in excellence for teaching and learning under the Federal Government's 2009 Learning and Teaching Performance Fund.

The fund rewards universities that demonstrate excellence in teaching and learning for domestic undergraduates, awarding scores across four discipline groups. Institutions are assessed on graduate surveys measuring levels of satisfaction and employability or progress to further study, and Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations data on retention and progression rates.

UNSW will receive a total of $6.9 million from the Fund, the highest allocation of any university, and $1.4 million above the next ranked institution. Click here to find out more.

UNSW is a leader in research, and its scientists are among the best in the world in DNA technology, quantum computing, bioengineering, weather prediction, wildlife management, drug development, cosmology, psychology and mathematics. We are developing new medicines and materials, repairing the environment, turning plastic bags into steel...the list is endless."

GREAT NEWS TO THOSE WHO ARE LOOKING FOR SCHOLARSHIPS!!! :

"UNSW offers a range of scholarships to science students, including the prestigious Malcolm Chaikin Scholarship valued at $15,000. Our links with business and industry also attract many other scholarships.
