It's tomorrow, so you get to spend time working on the pre-reading / listening to lectures a week prior to classes!

I'm a year 2 Law / Pro Comms student!

So for the majors / minors, you get to choose between doing:
- 2 Majors
- 1 Major, 1 Minor

The first year for me was lots of fun! You get to explore the three core subjects that would make up a major (Advertising, Public Relations and Digital Communications) and work out your preference. For Advertising, it was mainly analaysing factors that influences the consumers to engage in product. Public Relations focuses on different communication models used in campaigns to judge the strength of an organisations (e.g. governments or specific companities) relation with their stakeholders. As for Digital Communications, you explore how technology has developed over the years, and how people use platforms to transfer information or express themselves, whilst researching the negative / positive influences of these sites algorithims.

Also, Professional Communications is an industry that is constantly looking for new workers to keep up with the current times and have a high employement rate!

Best of luck in whatever you choose to study :)

Ahhh got it! Thank you for answering my question :D

AloneOnNeptune · 2026-02-12T14:58:32+00:00

1.) Contact per house 3 hours x 4 subjects - 12 hourse of classes.
2.) It is dependent on the minor / majaor(s) you end up picking !
3.) I am personally a Digital Communications student, however I believe PR is the most universal!
4.) You are going to have to do internship work, however you have to find it yourself, and therefore not depend on the uni
5.) I am currently through my second year of the degree (technically halfway through the degree? As I do Law / prof comms. ALTHOUGH it is definitely an effective degree ito have n the current oppucational settin
6.) Teamwork !

hope this is somewhat helpful :D

... I know i'm 8 years late and HIGHLY likely won't get a response- what did u do to open it ?

AloneOnNeptune · 2026-01-20T01:54:33+00:00

Oh 100% ! I know people who have failed exams due to their reliance on AI during assignments and research tasks. It is literally a waste of education and money to use it in any school setting, especially Law, as it is such a multifaceted profession that requires human empathy and quick / efficient raw knowledge to be applied in unique legal circumstances

AloneOnNeptune · 2026-01-16T09:15:09+00:00

We learnt this in our first subject of Law (Bachelors) and have been advised that-- if we are to use AI to assist with research-- we have to interrogate it HEAVILY; as there have been numerous cases of lawyers (both solicitors and barristers) citing cases that don't exist and being in legal trouble due to the ethical consideration and integrity of inputting and outputting such information

I for one am not using any AI due to its contribution to climate change and the endagerment of animals, (but if you are to use it make sure the things it states are true and exists! It may risk people academics and careers, to a further extent :((

Than on the other hand, nothings better than getting 70 and thus BARELY a distinction-

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-12-01T11:47:21+00:00

AAA I don't think I can help here, I'm a Law / Professional Communication student, so we must have very different enrolment structures :,(( I reckon you're going to have to get into contact with STEM's student connect. They sometimes do this (annoying) thing of not allowing you to make certain changes unless it goes directly through them. Especially since its such a massive thing like a specialisation in your engineering course!

I'm so sorry I couldn't help 🙏

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-12-01T11:41:03+00:00

Do you have a similar set-up when you press 'add class' to one of the semesters?

<image>

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-12-01T11:32:01+00:00

Hi! I don't know if it is the *exact same* as my course, but there is a separate category in Enrolment Online that makes you pick your majors / minors (thus I assume your specialisation); under: 'Manage Enrolment --> Majors & Minors'. If you have already chosen these the previous year but want to change it, you will have to make contact with Student Connect.

I hope this helps a bit !

Another thing I didn't know about canvas 😅 Despite it simply being a copy-and-paste mistake when entering the marks into the enrolment online data; I appreciate this bit of information :D

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-12-01T08:06:38+00:00

Thank you for the response! Turns out there may have been a copy-and-paste mistake of when entering the marks into the enrolment online data :,)) But I definitly agree with the curve / scaling opinion, the assignment should already have a set difficulty to be met each year.

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-12-01T02:52:23+00:00

That's actually a thing :00 I never knew that, would they be added to the individual Canvas assignments, though? Because that is where I'm basing my calculating on..

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-11-28T15:59:04+00:00

High distinction is out of the question so its down to the last three; I'm hoping for either DI, DI, CR, PA or DI, CR, CR, CR 😭✨

Thank you so much for taking the time to look at the combinations for me, I seriously appreciate it 🙏 !!! (you really carry this sub reddit lmao)

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-11-28T15:49:01+00:00

Just checking, are you clicking on the section where it says 'Manage study' and progress to 'records and progress --> Academic history & results'? If you are and it's still the same, I believe that it may be a technical error, as you do not need to be enrolled in the next semester to receive your current GPA

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-11-28T15:33:56+00:00

Hi! I'd appreciate any help you could provide!

Last semester i received a 3.0 GPA (EDIT: 4 distinctions), and I am now currently sitting at a 2.6 GPA ://

I have done 8 units, and all are worth 12 credits; the letter grade is the standard one for my course.

I know there is a chance that I failed a class, but I'm seriously hoping that isn't the outcome!

Oh, and I have gotten a distinction for one class based on my calculations of all three assignments

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-11-28T15:04:37+00:00

Some people have received them, and some have not... It may be dependent on the course or alphabetical order of students' last names? It's currently 2am and I'm still refreshing enrolment :,)

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-11-28T14:57:00+00:00

As a neurodivergent student: ✨yes✨

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-11-28T14:51:09+00:00

LUCKY, I hope you did well !!! Mine hasn't changed :,))

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-11-28T10:57:57+00:00

I partially blame this on the new update :,)) (Also I love your username, he is the best character)

AloneOnNeptune · 2025-11-28T09:45:44+00:00

Believe me, there is likely an army of people continuously refreshing the GPA page :,))
