Congratulations for making it into Computer Science and Engineering at UNSW! Enrolling in and choosing your subjects is an important step in your uni experience - it can determine the trajectory of your future career, how much time you spend at uni, and what areas of computing you get to explore while you're there. This guide is here to help you navigate that process, and provide tips, tricks and advice along the way.

Your university life will be a journey that is challenging, but ultimately fun and rewarding.

No matter the ups or downs you might face, we hope you enjoy the ride!

Please note: CSESoc is the constituent student society of UNSW’s School of Computer Science and Engineering. We do not represent the School, Faculty or University. This resource seeks to be a general guide, but its information has not been officially endorsed, and is subject to change or correction. You should always confirm any statements are correct with regard to your situation.

WHAT IS CSE? The uni is divided into faculties based on subject area, which themselves are divided into Schools. The School of Computer Science and Engineering is a division of the Faculty of Engineering, which is part of UNSW. "Computer Science and Engineering" is usually abbreviated to the acronym CSE. This is a general term for the degrees or courses offered by the School. Students of the school are often called “CSE Students”. And as a constituent society of the School, CSESoc is a home for students doing a CSE Degree, a CSE course, or anyone wants to be involved!

A TIP !

Each degree has a contact person who can give you a definitive answer to any degreerelated questions. You might talk to them for advice or if you’re trying to haggle your graduation.

DEGREES & PROGRAMS In CSE, you’ll see the following terms a lot. These are not official definitions, but it may help when navigating the Handbook. Make sure to check the official advice!

DEGREE A degree is the formal qualification you’re paying for, such as a Bachelor of Science (Computer Science) or a Bachelor of Engineering. It's used to show evidence of your education to potential employers. UNSW offers a large variety of degrees, including a number of predetermined double degrees.

For example: https://degrees.unsw.edu.au/computer-science/ This tells you what you get at the end of the degree, but it doesn’t necessarily tell you what you need to do to be awarded it.

PROGRAM A program is the specification of how you’re going to get your degree. It usually has a code, e.g. for Computer Science the code is 3778, and for Engineering it’s 3707. You should have applied for a specific program via UAC, or another admissions program. You can usually find them in the handbook, and it will tell you the structure of your degree and what you have to do to qualify for graduation.

For Computer Science Students, your program is generally specific to Compsci. For Engineering Students, your program is the same for any Engineering (e.g. Chemical Engineering students are in the same program as Software Engineering).

Note some programs award more than one degree, such as 3791 (Computer Science/ Media Arts) which contains both the Computer Science and the Media arts programs.

TYPES OF COURSES

Core Courses “You must take these specific courses.”

Elective Courses “Here’s a list of courses, you need to do X of them.”

Discipline Electives “Pick courses from all the courses offered by the School”

Note that there are specific rules about free electives and gen-eds you can and can’t take. Make sure that you read your program carefully to find them! You can go to Nucleus if you have questions.

Free Electives “Pick courses from across the university"

General Education Courses “Pick courses from outside your faculty, so you learn about other things.”

THE CSE FAMILY Let’s explore the degrees in the CSE family!

Computer Science (CS) Computer Science can be considered to be the parent to most degrees in the CSE family.

The field of computer science is very broad and encompasses several subfields such as theoretical CS, computer systems, artificial intelligence and applied CS. To account for this breadth, UNSW’s offering of the CS degree is very flexible. The mandatory courses cover the fundamental principles of computer science and programming. Additionally, you have six discipline electives to take your CS degree in whichever direction you want.

Another flexibility factor is that it has six free electives and two general education courses, something that the other degrees in the CSE family lack. This allows you to explore other academic fields like Arts or Commerce. You’ll often find CS students underloading (deliberately taking less courses in a year) which extends the degree’s duration but allows them to focus on personal projects and enjoy their university experience!

P.S. NO! You don’t have to study Software Engineering to become a software engineer.

CS students can learn almost all of what Software Engineering students learn. More on that in the below section!

Advanced Computer Science (ACS) This program introduces a novel degree in Computer Science, newly available in 2023. It encompasses a traditional Computer Science curriculum extended by an additional year dedicated to completing honours-level studies. Participants will engage in a rigorous thesis project during this supplementary year. Notably different from Software Engineering, this program exempts students from mandatory engineering subjects like DESN.

Engineering Degrees Unlike CS which is a degree in itself, the other degrees in the CSE family are majors within the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours). With this, the following degrees have some common attributes that can’t be found in the CS. Most notably, the Engineering degrees have an embedded thesis project. Additionally, you will be required to complete 60 days of industrial training in order to complete your degree. There are also ENGGspecific courses that are common to all engineering degrees.

Software Engineering (SENG) Software Engineering is very much the fraternal twin of CS with many similarities but can also be seen as an extension of CS. SENG specialises and magnifies the processes of developing, operating and maintaining software (programs used by a computer). It builds upon your computing skill sets and refines your understanding of designing software systems, project management and software testing for quality assurance. With this, SENG has a stricter degree program with additional mandatory courses in computing, SENG, engineering fundamentals and mathematics. As an extension of CS, you may take any courses offered in CS as well!

Computer Engineering (COMP ENG) Computer Engineering is the child of CS and electrical engineering (ELEC) which combines the hardware and software worlds together to build computerised systems.

COMP ENG builds a foundation of electrical circuit fundamentals with ELEC courses (including physics and mathematics courses) and extends this understanding with core COMP hardware-focused courses where you’ll be designing and developing integrated computer and embedded systems. You’ll also have the opportunity to explore other computing electives as well!

Bioinformatics Engineering (BINF) Bioinformatics is a special child of biology and CS who has a mix of statistical DNA. In BINF, you’ll learn how to utilise your knowledge of computing tools and algorithms to solve biological problems! This could range from developing software for analysing DNA sequences to dynamic programming for optimising sequence alignment. This program reflects on the major theme dominating the industry: genetics, however, other thematic points include protein biology and systems biology! To address the range of topics, you’ll similarly take a range of core courses spanning much of the biotechnology and biomolecular courses and core computing courses. There are also core courses that are uniquely BINF.

CHOOSING A MAJOR Choosing a major works differently between different degrees, so we’ll talk about them separately.

For CS Students: Your specialization is just that - it’s an area where you've done a bunch of courses and have specific knowledge. You start out in the default specialization, which only forces you to do core subjects. Choosing a different specialization will force you to take courses in that particular subject, so when you graduate you can say “I know lots about this thing.”

CS students can also use free electives to complete an optional Minor (like an extra, smaller Major) in different faculties.

"CS majors aren't that valuable. They're a useful guide if you want to learn about a particular thing, but having a major written on your degree is much less valuable when you're looking for a job than having demonstrable skills. So if you want to specialise in something, you should also focus on getting real world experience in that thing (contributing to projects/joining societies/getting internships). Also, it's quite possible there will be courses you're interested in doing outside your major - that's okay!" - Tom Kunc, 2020 CSE Student Representative

For Engineering Students: Your specialisation is realistically the program you’re actually following - for example, if you choose the Software Engineering specialization, in practice you'll be studying an entirely different set of courses to Computer Engineering. This doesn't mean you can't pick a subject area to focus on though - you just won't graduate with the major if you take those courses.

Courses you need to have completed to be allowed to enrol. This course also requires a minimum grade in those courses. Some other courses have corequisites which you can complete either before or at the same time.

Courses you can’t do if you’ve done this one.

This prevents you taking the same course again, but under a different name.

More properties the course might have, such as if it is an entry-level course, or if you can take it as a gen ed

Course Outline A more specific guide to “what is in the course”, such as assessment schedules and course content. Not always accessible via the handbook, so you might need to hunt for them - they are usually available on the course's Moodle or WebCMS page after you enrol. A must read!

COURSE CODES A course is an individual subject you study. Each course almost always has a code, which looks like: COMP1511 or MATH1231. These codes can be a bit cryptic, so here's some general tips on cracking them!

The first four letters indicate something about who runs the course (generally the school/faculty/program, but the naming conventions are really weird). The ones you're most likely to encounter are below:

There are then four numbers which uniquely identify the course.

The final three digits sometimes indicate a relationship between courses or an order you should take them, but sometimes they also mean nothing! It depends.

However, the first number contains some useful info:

Generally implies “fourth year/ honours”, but in CSE is “some harder electives, and courses which start with 4 because of archaic rules”

1XXX

Means “targeted at first year” for example, COMP1511.

4XXX

2XXX

Means “follows on from a first year course”. COMP2521 is an exception as it’s typically a first year course.

6XXX

Generally means “combined undergrad/ postgrad course”

9XXX

Generally means “postgrad course”, however some are also “combined undergrad/ postgrad course”

3XXX

Sometimes “third year”, but in CSE is just “most electives”

HOW MANY SUBJECTS PER TERM? UNSW operates on a trimester system, which means three terms are offered a year. UNSW recommends you take eight courses over those terms, but you can take less or more (up to nine).

Note to be considered a full-time domestic student, you need at least 12 UOC a term or 36 UOC across the year, with at least one subject a term. International students often need at least 48UOC across the year, but this can vary based on the terms of your visa.

Trimesters makes planning your year quite interesting! Below are some common arrangements of number of subjects per term, but others exist. Many students report even a single course makes a big difference on their workload, so consider your schedule well! You may also find that your enrolment is restricted by when courses are offered (some are only offered once a year).

A Tip! We highly recommend doing COMP1511 in T1 with the rest of your cohort to form a community - you’ll also go through higher subjects with them at the same time. In fact, COMP1511 is restricted to only CSE students in T1. If the course is full, speak to the Nucleus and you can usually get a spot!

MATH1231/MATH1241 - Mathematics 1B The second half of Level 1 Mathematics More calculus and algebra (Lots of matrices) Includes a written proof assignment

I hate maths - do I have to do it?

Yup. It can be frustrating having to do a subject that you hate - but don’t worry! There’s a huge community here at CSESoc to help you through it. We all had to do the maths courses so ask on Discord if you need help! :3 There’s also loads of weekly drop-in sessions throughout the term where student tutors can answer any questions you have!

I hate maths - can I do it later?

Absolutely! Most people take MATH1131/1141 in their first year, but if you’d rather do COMP core courses or electives, then go for it! However, we recommend doing MATH1231/1241 right after MATH1131/1141 as they assume you know the material well.

Should I do MATH1131 or MATH1141?

Both MATH1141 and MATH1131 cover the same concepts. MATH1141 goes through basics faster to cover additional material in each topic. MATH1141 also has harder tutorial and exam questions. However the courses are graded on a joint-curve, and students who do the higher maths are almost always scaled higher for their effort.

Usually the people who enjoy MATH1141 love maths, and most did HSC 4U Maths. It’s doable with 3U knowledge, but you’re going to need to put in the work.

If you’re still unsure, MATH1141 has an “assumed knowledge” of a combined HSC Mathematics Extension 1 and Extension 2 mark > 175, which is a good difficulty indicator! You can always drop from MATH1141 to MATH1131 before Census date, or switch to MATH1231 or MATH1241 next term (MATH1241 just requires a credit in either MATH1131 or MATH1141).

"Advice: Unless you love maths 100% - stick to 1131. It’s not worth the extra stress of harder material for the clout of doing a higher subject and/or the additional scaling. However, 1141/1241 may be useful if you’re really interested in Comp subjects that involve lots of maths (AI, Algorithms, etc) " Shrey Somaiya (CSESoc 2021 Co-president)

A word of advice: it's pretty unlikely you'll complete all your level 1 CSE courses in your first year - especially if you're doing a double degree, or need to take your degree slower for any reason. Don't stress out about 'feeling behind'!

Online vS IN-pERSON CLASSES With the infamous pandemic now slowly fading into the background, many classes at UNSW are slowly moving back towards being in-person. However, as a side-effect, a lot of these classes actually offer both an in-person and online option, which to most students is a huge win!

This means students are left with another daunting decision to make: to select in-person classes, online classes, or a mixture of both?

A completely online approach is generally best suited towards those who live either overseas or quite far away from the university. If you don't live too far away from campus, try to attend as many classes in person as possible!

Not only do you get to meet people more easily, but there is generally a greater sense of engagement and learning when you are in such an environment.

Additionally, you do not want to miss out on the amazing student life that UNSW has to offer, or the weekly sausage sizzles held by CSESoc.

Of course, it is understandable if you do not want to commute to university every day for lessons, particularly if it's a short one hour tutorial. So, here are some tips to a more hybrid approach!

Try grouping in-person lessons onto the same day (or two).

Aim to choose tutorials and labs in-person, and if you want less classes inperson, lectures online.

If you are unwell or have another commitment during one of your classes, attend another class online at your convenience! Most tutors do not mind, and can only be beneficial for your own learning!

Electing for online lectures gives you greater control on your pace of learning, as you can fast-forward and pause at your own leisure.

SIGNING UP FOR CLASSES There are two stages to signing up to a class in a particular term.

1. Enrolling in the course 2. Registering for classes

Sign Up To sign up you'll need to access the myUNSW website. Navigating this website can be overwhelming but don't worry!

TYPES OF CLASSES (AKA: WHAT DO THESE LETTERS MEAN?)

Tutes (tutorials) are usually a revision of the past week or two’s worth of content. For COMP courses, this might mean a tutor going through some theory or code and explaining how it works. For MATH courses this is usually working through the course's problem set.

While tutes aren't alway compulsory, we still recommend you go to all of them to help solidify your understanding!

TUT TLB In first year COMP courses, TLB’s are tut-labs - a 3 hour block, where the first hour is a TUT and the following two hours is a CSE LAB.

LEC/WEB

Lectures are where most core content is explicitly taught - your lecturer will explain concepts and demonstrate sample problems. Your job is to listen and take notes! WEBs are often recorded or prerecorded lectures (not always)

The mysterious OTH OTH time slots are for “other”! What does that mean? Depends on the course. They might be exams, workshops, weekly quizzes or anything else you might think of.

In non-CSE courses, LABs are often science labs. But in CSE courses, LABs means computer labs! Each week, there will be a series of exercises related to that week's content, worth a small amount of your grade. LAB’s are very important as it allows you to do your work surrounded by a strong network of Tutors and Lab-assistants to help you.

TLDR: Go to your labs! You can leave whenever you want (usually after you've finished the exercises and gotten marked)

LAb

Timetabling Tips

Tracklist There are often multiple tutorials at the same time. If you’re trying to enrol in the same tutorial as friends, make sure to pick the same tute number and not just the same time!

Given there are only a few lecture streams, you don’t have much choice in picking your lecture times. However, you have a lot more flexibility picking tutorials and labs.

Most if not all lectures are recorded, so some people prefer to skip the live lecture and watch the recordings. This gives you a lot more flexibility. However, we highly recommend you attend all of your tutorials and labs live.

Online classes are often more flexible, since you won't need to travel in to campus.

However, it's much harder to interact and get to know people in them!

Make sure you're realistic when making your timetable. Ideal You might be able to wake up early for a 9am class on campus, but Real You might not! Also make sure you account for travel time, especially during morning traffic.

It's a bad idea to schedule in a lot of back-to-back classes, since it's likely you'll get tired or distracted. Make sure you have time to take breaks between classes!

COMMON PROBLEMS Your answers to common enrolment issues, here!

Settings

Can I stop taking this course?!

Yes, but make note of the date! After week 1 you can’t pick up new courses without special approval. After Census Date (around week 4, but check the Academic Calendar), you can’t drop a course without paying for it. After these dates, dropping a course will cost you money and might be marked on your academic transcript. Also check if you’re bound by visa or scholarship terms before you drop!

How do I find my online class?

Different courses use different platforms, such as Youtube, Blackboard Collaborate or Zoom. A link will usually be posted somewhere on the course's Moodle page or WebCMS page, so check those pages thoroughly.

I have a timetable clash!

If one or both of the clashing classes is an online lecture, you can usually still enrol, with the understanding that you'll watch the lecture recordings later.

However, some classes may mandate attendance. If it's unavoidable, you must complete a Timetable Clash Enrolment (see below).

What if I want to overload? Or resolve a timetable clash? Or enrol in a full class? Or transfer credits?

Final advice Don’t push yourself unreasonably for marks. It’s a lot harder to get high marks at uni than in high school, and marks are really different between courses/degrees. Talk to friends and other students before you get upset about your marks - chances are you’re doing fine, and it’s just your own expectations. Achieving high marks is also less useful as they're not super important in industry. Companies *might* ask for a credit or distinction WAM but very very very few companies pick people based on marks alone.

Many first year students have a significant shock to their system when they go from 90+ marks in high school, to 70-80’s in uni. Keep in mind, that the “average” uni student tends to receive around 65-75 in most courses, and that the cutoff to be considered for a dean's award is 85 WAM - which tells you a lot about what the university considers a high level of academic excellence!

We also highly highly highly recommend going to as many social events in the first term as you possibly can. Uni isn’t the same if you don’t have friends to cry about assignments with at 3am in the morning. Come to CSESoc First Year Camp - and be sure to sign up for our mentoring program for academic and social development. We also host workshops and careers events if you’re looking to get a head-start on your future work. (Obviously the CSESoc Guide is a bit biased about joining CSESoc events - what a shock…)

Most of all, have fun! Be sure to pop into our weekly BBQ at John Lions Garden for some free food and say hello!

If you have any more questions that aren’t on this document, message CSESoc's Facebook page :) You can also reach out to your fellow CSE students on the CSESoc Facebook group and CSESoc Discord server.
