No worries.. In that case would like to point out this as well. I am not so sure about this as the course structure has changed from last year. but for most engineering double degree students(pretty much for everyone) who started their course in 2015 didn't have to do Mobile apps, which means it wasn't a core unit for double degree students. I am saying this because that subjects is widely known for a hard subject. lots of students struggles in it. may or may not reflect in their result but still. unless you are reaaaally in to programming I would advice against doing Mobile apps unless you have to. So just have a look at that :)

You have to. I had a course adviser check whether my subjects were alright.

Well then may be in this new course structure, you'll have to do it. I am pretty sure double degree students who started their course last year didn't have to do it. I even had friends who didn't do it. anyway then apparently it has changed now

Yeah. It was changed this year. They also removes Chemistry I as a foundation subject.

Hey Ask Monash University,
I'm just wondering what the commerce core units for commerce specialist/engineering double degree are for first year.
Thanks!
Hi sprout, check out the course maps at the bottom of this page.  Your core units will depend on which specialisations you choose.

Hey! Is there a way I can see whether we need to buy the textbooks? Also, can I see a picture of the books? I need to get the Engineering Math book for ENG1090, and Microeconomics book for ECC1000. Thanks!

EDIT: Can you use older editions? Is there a way I can find this information on my own?

best to ask students that have done that unit already [there is no way monash would have a system that tells you whether or not you need the book as if monash thought you didn't need it they wouldn't even have it on the booklist], try faculty specific Facebook pages or search the subjects on subject reviews on this forum, or PM someone that has likely done those units already. you can also start semester and then decide if you need to book or not 1 or 2 weeks in. keep in mind if you need only a chapter or two you can always photocopy library copies.

Following chasej's advice (but be careful photocopying pages from textbooks - you can't do it for the whole book, there are legal limits to this stuff), your best bet is probably to e-mail the unit coordinator and ask him/her.

Are we allowed to undertake any other study alongside the MBBS (honours); was looking into Master of Bioethics, Master of Public Health or diploma of liberal arts.  I understand if 1 year of the MBBS (honours) would need to be done before additional units are allowed to be added. :)

I'm not sure about the Masters of Bioethic or Master of Public Health but I'm pretty confident you can undertake the Diploma of Liberal Arts concurrently with the MBBS (Hons.).

I know people (only a couple) doing the MPH alongside the MBBS(Hons), but online at a different uni. I've got to say, they're not a fan of the increased workload and one dropped out of the extra degree because it was too much.

Wait...so someone did a Masters during their undergrad? Is it like a legit masters? Because from what I understand, you have to have a completed undergrad to undertake further studies; such as a masters degree. Those online courses are cool though because you can watch lectures and stuff whenever.

They did complete an undergrad. They were graduate-entry MBBS(Hons) students :)

What is the locker situation at the Clayton campus? I can't seem to find any information online. Thanks!

There's lockers in Menzies Building as well as at Monash Sport however I don't think it's worth the time getting a locker (whether it'd save you time from getting from class to class if say you have to log yourself from Engineering Hall from Menzies and back  :P)
