    I've just completed a Cert in Foundation Studies in Trinity and will be starting a Degree in Law in Oct. Looking forward to getting back.

    Soon to be doing theoretical physics, I might see you in one of the computer/internet societies. They sound really fun.

    Not really the type of societies you see people at, compsoc's room is full of old computers and netsocs room, well it has a couch.

    Anywho I'm doing engineering

    Neil.

    Comp Sci guy's are great. I was going to be one of them. They have a life, they like to party like the rest of us. Your in my faculty btw Crash, incase you didn't know it's an engineering degree you'll be getting.(of sorts)


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,195 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    BA i thought? then again the actual degrees that you get from trinity are oddly laid out. so what does our faculty do thats interesting then Joe?


  • Registered Users Posts: 925 ✭✭✭David19


    I'll be starting maths in trinity in october. PrecariousNuts you'll be in all my classes except one, statistics. Although apparently theoretical physics students can do that if they want.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 761 ✭✭✭PrecariousNuts


    I'll be in all your classes aswell as my physics ones? Wow this sounds like some year ahead of me.

    I was looking at the maths/physics socities too, anyone know whats the story with them? Boston, can you shead any light on the subject?

    Lol yeah i know. Its possibly the hardest course in ireland. The first year physics shouldn't be too bad though. Its just an introduction to physics mainly.

    im starting mental handicap nursing in october

    anyone know anything about student nurses?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,195 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    ...mmm student nurses....


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,523 ✭✭✭ApeXaviour


    I'm going into third year of my moderatership in Physics. TG no more chem..

    Btw 1st year physics is dead handy if you've done phys in school. A lot of it is even LC chem, at least the quantum part is..
    Gets a lot more difficult in 2nd yr though. Mighta justa been the papers but 2/3rds of my class failed it. Doesn't add up when you compare with the other subjects in natural sci..


  • Registered Users Posts: 644 ✭✭✭strawberry


    Technically a Trinity law and french student.
    It's my erasmus year though so in reality I'm studying in Paris. What I've learnt so far: french food is good, the wine is better, the Sc-Po isn't half as fun as Trinity, but yet manages to be twice as snobby :(

    Alway's found the Arts block and the Hamilton a bit souless...that's why i love my office being in the Museum Building. :D I'd recommend any newbies to trinity just to poke their head into this wonderful altmospheric building...

    Aye they are.. the old buildings (and sum of the really new ones) have much more character. Yeah the museum buildin is very nice, though I was never that much impressed by rocks.. :rolleyes:

    The creation and assessment of digital spatial modelling techniques for the
    management of lake water quality in the Lough Leane and Lough Feeagh
    catchments.


    Man that's quality.. :D You should have that as your signature instead of all that Compu-sh**e.. :p

    Yeah but it tends to scare people away :D (As for the picture :eek: )

    Sig is handy as i usually post in the comp forum. Just begun to explore in the last few weeks!!!! :D

    A few of my mates are in math's soc. It good enough if thats your thing. the get guest speakers in and the like. It also gets you access to the unix computers in the math department, if i recall correctly(ask about it) which basically means internet surfing and downloading without being watched. As for physic soc. They seem to do anything remotely related to physics, including designing and building rocket (though they weren't allowed us them)

    Btw what out for Prof colmen. Legend of a guy from cavan, no bull****. Best lecturer I had all year. You'll hate and love him in equal messure.

    Crash it is a BA but you'll be an engineer. It's complicated. You can become a member of the IEI with it and the like. You do allot of the stuff we would do in computer eng. without as much maths and science, and a damn site more programming and a robitics modual.

    pekelly you an engineer or a geography guy. Do yea no Mr graham (red hair).

    Yeah I know what u mean bout scarin peeps. People ask me what I'm studying right now I usually say something like "planets" or "lasers", never "molecular orbital theory of homo-nuclear diatomic molecules". People just go pure silent.. It's great sometimes if you really don't wanna talk to someone. Keep it in mind ;)

    Never been kicked out, and yea their big ass trinitron monitors, only about ten computers so you might mean another lab I haven't yet found. Those stairs though are a pain.
