Claire Pech – Careers Advisor

Careers Update 

Last week the Careers Advisors of NSW spent a day at the UNSW to hear their 2020 updates.

A summary of my notes from the day can be found below showcasing a variety of topics such as:

• Why study Marine Science?
• New courses for 2020
• New majors, new double degrees and a new Bachelor of Commerce degree being released mid-year in 2020
• The Co-Op Program
• Scholarships
• Work Integrated Learning (WIL)
• Student exchanges overseas with over 300+ partner universities

A full transcript of my notes can be accessed here and the official UNSW slides can be found here.

ANU Applications 2021

Direct applications for 2021 will open in March 2020 for all domestic school leavers. There is no application fee, students will be required to meet the co- curricular or service requirement, and they will apply for admission, guaranteed accommodation, and over 200 scholarships all in one application. This closes in May and so students (if they are considering it) must apply or will lose out. This is a totally different process to UAC and the other Universities, as it is direct.

Year 10 Information Night

All of the slides from the Information Night can be found here.

Please note any appointments for my online booking system can be found at: https://calendly.com/clairepechcareers/ where I welcome any new appointments (students and/or parents) to discuss any thing to do with Year 10, subject selections, the Careers Avenues process and moving through the process of figuring out what to do next!
