Bach Construction Management

Geeze didn't know you could get a degree in building a bach, does that consider all the options for old vynll tables and cast iron roofs without linings

I understand it takes three years to accumulate 1LTR ....

But that'd be worth a herd of Alpaca or something, right?

I got my Student Loan when they were charging interest (even while you were studying - and the interest rate worked out to 8.5-9% at the time) - they stopped the interest a year or 2 after I graduated (I think). Taken me ~10 years to pay off (in another 3-4 months).

Will be nice to get rid of it, another couple of hundred in the pay packet will pay for tires

Bro wasnt having a dig, i no they offer good programmes but it is well known that the engineering degree there is much easier and not as highly regaurded as a UoA engineering degree, i have met lots of people that did there first 2 years at tec then crossed over to finish at auckland for that reason, its a well known alternate pathway, i had to do a year of Bsc to gets my math and physics up to scratch. Peace.

and re the grammer, yeah we gota sit an english screening test which was very easy, i talks guds wens i needs to.

Lol...added the grammar comment in as a wind-up

Yeah, there is one other thing that Auckland Uni does pretty well, and that is maintaining a high standard of graduate, I have employed a few and I do concede that they are consistently of a high standard.

I have a lot of other students around me during the day and I suppose I just get sick of the same old bullshit of 'X' is better than 'Y' etc. In reality, give them a few years work experience under their belt and it levels the playing field. Same reason I suppose why a couple of guys I know who only just skimmed through their degree's to a achieve a marginal pass actually ended up leaders in their field once they had some practical experience.

One thing I did notice with Auckand Uni that Unitec was shit at and Massey is only reasonable at is networks. Auckland University seems to have good connections with the wider community. Initiatives like Icehouse being one case in point.

You would have to have rocks in your head to not consider Aussie at the moment. It does not matter what type of engineer you are, Aussie are aggressively recruiting.

I'm not even an engineer and I'm still considering it.

30 years ago I was told I wouldn't make a Vinyl Layer as long as my arse pointed to the ground...30 years on, I am still doing it...some what slower now than I once was but its all about working smarter for me now, not harder.

Better drop that attitude before you go looking for a job.

You won't be considering it once you've seen my Bonnie

No fucking way man, have you heard of the drop bears they have over there

I have 5 graduate engineer mates who are either looking for or have got jobs in the last 2 years, none went to aussie, so they can't be recruiting with the aggression their drop bears have

Loan money, pay it back=good buggar.
Loan money, welch on contract= limp dick criminal.

It a student can't work that out, then they havn't graduated from year 3.
