I see a lot of university types here, professors, researchers, librarians, graduate students, various offices …

Where are the undergraduates? Are any here?

I’d enjoy hearing from undergrads why you choose the Fediverse. Thinking about how I promote this place to my students. Replies and boosts welcome.

Harry, a first-year economics student at #Melbourne #University, was excited to start his academic journey. However, he felt left out when his tutorials were conducted mainly in Mandarin, making it hard for him to participate. The University of Melbourne is investigating the issue, while TEQSA emphasises that universities must ensure students have the necessary English proficiency. #EducationMatters #Inclusion #UniversityLife #MelbourneUniversity #TEQSA #LanguageBarrier #HigherEducation #PonziScheme #FreeEducation

A post I read struck me as very interesting when I stumbled across it. It's about the differences in lifestyle, and other soft factors, between getting a PhD and having an industry job. The author is trying to compare life and academia versus life in industry. Since I've been living some of that for the last decade(s), I noticed there are some things that aren't mentioned. So, a thread.

Dear Students, scientists or expats, a small warning before you move to germany. We usually do not have this strong alumni culture here. So if someone tries to sell/rent something or give you remarkable Discounts because they were at the same University procede with caution. It's probably a fraud and then you do not have to write off 1600€ like my new colleague.

The new academic year is about to start at UNSW and I am looking forward to leading the course 'Earth and Environmental Science' in Term 1.

We have a few spaces available, so this is my call out to anyone who is studying at UNSW Sydney, or who knows someone who is studying.

For anyone interested in taking this course as an elective subject, there is more information in the picture below
