Default Finished uni!! *breathes sigh of relief*

So, officially, all my marks have been amended, to what they're meant to be, and I'm now officially an engineer. Graduate engineer. With a killer job lined up for the end of February

Just needed to brag. OH and I get to wear a silly hat in two weeks (clearly, the more important part of finishing a Bachelor degree...)

Good work! I remember that very feeling 3 years ago, minus the awesome job lined up. Enjoy it!

I envy you quite a bit right now. I've still got one semester for my current degree and a year after that for the my other one.

Anyway, congratulation

Congrats. My future daughter-in-law just finished her Bachelor of Science. She passed with honors too. ( I just wanted to brag a bit as well!)

Congrats to everyone who has finished or starting!

I start my Bachelor of Business (Marketing) next year, so that should be fun! All in the hope of lining up a job with Ford Product Planning!

Thanks guys, and well done to everyone else just finishing And to those only with a semester or two to go.

Polyal, I somehow managed to score a job as a graduate pipe design engineer, for a leading worldwide company in brownfield mining and piping solutions. Wasn't a company I'd heard much about when I applied, but after doing the assessment centre I was really impressed, and put a bit of eeffort into the interview. It paid off

Yep, but at least it won't be going to lectures and learning a range of stuff I won't use, and a tiny portion of stuff I will
