Free map of cheap lunches around UTS (80 meals at $15 or less)

53 Upvotes

I made a free map of Sydney meals that are $15 or less, and there are 80 around UTS, Haymarket and Central. A few near campus:

- Mini curry bowl, $7.90, Ramen Bar Goku

- Plain kake udon, $9.90, Mappen

- Pizza, $10, Shark Hotel (Thursday to Saturday nights)

- Eggsmith toastie, $10.50, Toastie Smith

- Baoger, $10.80, Cheeky Bao

Every meal shows the full price, any catch, and if it's open right now. No ads, no account needed to look: www.brokemap.com.au

It's only as good as what people add. If your go-to cheap lunch isn't on there you can add it (I check each one before it goes up), and you can flag a price that's gone up.

Not a UTS thing, just something I built. What am I missing?

Cybersecurity Capstone not running next year?

8 Upvotes

I’m going into my third year of my cybersecurity degree and, when attempting to enrol for my subjects, the cybersecurity capstone subject from my handbook isn’t available to take next year. This is a core subject and I am unsure what to do - others in my degree also have no clue.

How did you find your honours supervisor? (FEIT / Comp Sci Honours)

6 Upvotes

Hey all, I’m in Bachelor of Computing Science (Honours) and need to find a supervisor ASAP for my honours project in 2027. I’m still flexible on topic, so I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been through it:

  • How did you approach supervisors? Cold email, a lecturer you’d had, through the coordinator?
  • Was there an interview or meeting before they said yes? What did they ask?
  • How did they choose? Grades, a pitch, past subjects, just availability?
  • Did you bring your own topic or take one of theirs?
  • How many people did you contact before someone said yes?
  • Any red flags or regrets with your supervisor? What would you do differently?

Any tips appreciated, especially from FEIT/IT honours people. Thanks!

UTS Elec Eng?

5 Upvotes

Hey guys just wondering how UTS's electrical engineering program is for employment outcomes.

For some context, I'm looking to transfer out of UNSW to here after first year, just because everything was a bit too much (ELEC1111 :( ), and the trimesters just magnified those issues. I understand that UNSW is removing them soon, but I still think that I would not be able to pass electrical engineering at UNSW if I were to undertake it. I know some people will tell me to stay but I am rather serious about me not being able to pass UNSW electrical engineering, at least for a while. Trust me, I know my where my capabilities start and end, and I don't think I would pass UNSW's elec eng at all. I just ain't smart lmao.

Any knowledge on the workload and whether it's even easier than UNSW will also be much appreciated.

The nature of the work and course structures too would be appreciated. Like, is there a lot of group work, how many courses have ultra high fail rates (50%+) as well as just how people found it in general. Not just for electrical but for other engineering fields as well, all perspectives are welcome.

I'm not too obsessed over the social life and the like, pretty much just the employment outcomes.

Thank you all and I wish you a nice day!

Academic Misconduct

4 Upvotes

I have a subject this semester where content had not been posted till week 8 & Assignment 3 out 5 was posted on week 10 that weeks class ended. Assignment 4 is in person practical examination yet there is no confirmation on the date nor on MSA. Is this allowed.

This subject has applied Negative Marking Techniques to the Assignments.

The assessment criteria have been constantly changed after submission yet tutors deny any changes despite multiple witnesses.

The whole course is group work & for some groups are at a extreme disadvantage for resources given compared to other groups.

Any Lectures were done only during workshop sessions

What are my next actions. This Subject coordinator/Lecturer wants us to fail obviously.

Enrolling in subjects

3 Upvotes

I lowkey think I might’ve made a silly mistake that may cause me to graduate late…

My very first semester at UTS, I only took 3 subjects because someone I knew from another school also only took 3 subjects and advised me that 4 would be too much of a workload (spoilers: its not). I only did this because I literally knew NOTHINGGGG about how university worked.

I’m now nearing the end of my second year and was planning on taking a Summer session class at the end of this year to try to make up for that class in order to graduate on time, but I COMPLETELY forgot that you had to register for that Summer class at the beginning of the year with all your classes, not now when the enrolments for next year open… (i should know better ik im stupid LMFAOOO) If 2027 was my projected final year, if I did a Summer class in 2027 would that mean I graduate later? Or would I graduate with the people who finished in Spring session?

Its not thaaat important I guess, but I’m more so wanting to be aware of whats gonna happen

master of speech pathology 2027

2 Upvotes

Hellooo everyone,

I am an international applicant and I completed my interview at the end of August...

It’s been over 6 weeks now and I haven’t heard anything back yet. The waiting period is absolutely killing me, and the anxiety is real 😭

For anyone who has applied in previous rounds or is in the same boat:

  • How long does UTS usually take to send out offer letters for international applicants?
  • Do they release offers in rounds, or do they wait until applications officially close (end of October)?
  • Is it normal to wait this long after an interview, or should I be preparing myself for a waitlist/rejection?

Would really appreciate any insights or past experiences! Hope everyone waiting gets some good news soon! 🙏

accounting major plan

1 Upvotes

for context, I start my second year in autumn. would you recommend me doing idc in spring 2027 after doing cms the previous semester?

the study plan recommends me doing it in spring of my final year, but I was thinking of doing acl and tax law in the summer session (2026 and 2027) to do 3 subjects in my 3rd year to balance work and study without needing to wait the next year to graduate.

this is what I was thinking:

summer 2026 - acl or tax law

autumn 2027 - cms + asr + 2 electives
spring 2027 - abc + idc + 2 electives
summer 2027 - acl or tax law

autumn 2028 - asa + 2 electives
spring 2028 - ba + 2 electives

Picking Finance Major Electives

1 Upvotes

Hey can anyone please give me some insight into the following 3 electives for my finance major:

- investment banking
- commercial bank management
- derivative securities

I really enjoy maths and usually find quantitative subjects a bit easier then subjects where I need to memorise and write a lot of words. But I don’t want to lock myself into too many really difficult subjects in the same semester.
I keep seeing people say that derivative securities is very difficult!
