Undergraduate and Postgraduate Coursework Checklist

  • Get your Student ID Card from FM Assist

  • Become familiar with the UNSW terminology (courses, programs, plans, etc)

  • Make sure your course enrolment is complete

  • Work out how to access your zpass UNSW student email account

  • Buy your textbooks from the Bookshop or second-hand (it's good to wait until you've attended your first class in case you don't need to buy them all).

  • Organise your timetable - find out where and when your first classes will be

  • Visit the Engineering Student Centre and know where your School Office is

  • Get to know your campus (Campus maps)

  • It's important that you have a safe time, as well as a great time, at UNSW, so visit the School's OHS page

  • Familiarise yourself with the UNSW Student Code of Conduct, noting that plagiarism is taken very seriously at this University, and the UNSW IT Policies, Procedures and Guidelines.

  • Check UNSW and Faculty support services
