今天早上英语老师给我们讲了大学专业，主要分为文科，理科，商科三大类。澳洲最具优势的专业有农业与生物科学，工程、计算与数学，环境科学，健康科学，人文与社会科学，分子生物学与生物科技，物理学、化学和地质学。老师还推荐我们今后学经济。她说这是一个特别好的学科。In the morning, The English teacher talked about various majores available in Australian universities. Agricultural and biological sciences, engineering, computing and mathematics, environmental science, health science, humanities and social science, molecular biology and biotechnology, physics, chemestry and geology taught in Australia are all well regarded. Commerce was especially recommended by her.
Then we caught a bus to Flinders university. We first went to the campus for mechanical engineering. The teacher told us that the famous show called ‘Running Man’ was taken here. Then the teacher showed us around the laboratory. There are robots developed independently by students in this lab. We also visited the self-study room and the library. It is quite impressive that they have got sockets in those lockers. I think they are especially convenient. Later, we looked around the students’ room, they have microwaves, refrigerators and comfortable seats over there which is also very convenient. Then the teacher took us to another campus of Flinders university. We were given a presentation on strengths and weaknesses, tuition fees and ATAR requirements for different courses at Flinders University. Medicine course is my favourite. Although ATAR required for medicine is really high. But at Flinders university, as long as your ATAR and results for EAL meets the requirement, you will be offered a place for medicine.
After the presentation, the teacher prepared lunch for us in the school cafe. We enjoyed those burgers and roasts. Some of us played billiards with each other after lunch. Finally we went back to Immanuel College by bus.
