Chapter 14: Frequently asked questions 14.57.11How do I use the modems at RMIT? 14.58 Teaching and Learning Advisors 102 There are two ways to use modems at RMIT. Either you use the RMIT modems or you use the ISP that RMIT has engaged (for a fee). Information about the RMIT modems and how you use them should be available from Building 5. Information about general RMIT modems is available at http://www.rmit.edu.au/its. Refer to the contact information under “International Students” on page 87. 14.59 Technical Services (TSG) and IT Help 14.60 Text Books 14.61 Timetables 14.61.1 Where do I access my timetable? 14.61.2 How do I allocate myself to tutes and labs? 14.62 Transfer 14.62.1 How do I transfer from a Graduate Diploma to a Masters? 14.62.2 How do I transfer from one Masters program to another? Students who are experiencing problems should contact the Duty Programmers in the first instance, located at 10.10.13. There is also theTSG web page at http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/tsg. Text books change from year to year and are not listed here. International students who wish to purchase a text book before they arrive might contact the lecturer of the given course. Also see section 12.18 on page 82. Timetables can be accessed via http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/timetables. From here you will be able to view the times that lectures, tutorials and labs run for any given course running in the relevant semester. Once students have enrolled in courses and obtained their computer account they will need to log into the Student Timetabling System (STS) to be allocated to their tutes and labs. This will be done via http://www.rmit.edu.au/students/sts. You must have maintained a CGPA of at least 2.0 in your Graduate Diploma program to transfer to the Masters program. You can transfer either after Stage A or later in your studies. You must apply for the Masters program through OPS (local students) or RMIT International (international students). If you transfer to the Masters program, you may still apply to receive a Graduate Diploma when you have completed eight courses (including the core courses). Local students You should do the following: 1. Download a “Direct Application” form from: http://mams.rmit.edu.au/ilqu19mxxs49.pdf. 2. Seek approval from the program advisor of the program you wish to transfer to. (For a list of who these are, see “Program Advisors” on page 95.) 3. Attach a written approval to the application form and submit it to the Office for Prospective Students (Ground floor, Building 15, City campus).
14.63 Unix 14.64 Withdrawal 14.64.1 I want to withdraw from a course. 14.64.2 I need to withdraw from all courses, but just for a semester. 14.64.3 The company is sending me away and I have to miss a few lectures; what shall I do? Chapter 14: Frequently asked questions For MC062 Master of Technology (IT) students wanting to transfer to the MC061 Master of Applied Science (IT) program, please note: You can submit an application if and only if you have completed four Stage C courses of the MC062 Master of Technology (IT) program and have at least an average of Credit (CGPA of at least 2.0) in each course. Also, note that the only courses that will be counted towards the MC061 Master of Applied Science (IT) program are your Stage C courses. International students You should do the following: 1. Go to the School Office (Building 10, Level 10) to obtain a form. 2. You will then be directed to the new program’s advisor and/or selection officer to obtain their approval and signature. (For a list of program advisors, see “Program Advisors” on page 95.) 3. Go back to the School Office with the form that’s been approved, and you will be given further instructions on the next step in the process. See “What activites are run for Newly Commencing Students?” on page 89. It is very important that you familiarise yourself with Unix and attend three Unix and CS&IT Networks sessions that are offered by the School before you commence your classes. There are also some Unix tutorials that are available from the Computer Science Duty Programmers office at Building 10, Level 10. (See “Duty Programmers” on page 81.) Alternatively, you can go to the following link (you need to log in): http://www.inside.cs.rmit.edu.au/support/docs/ Finally, you can go to any technical bookstore and buy a “Unix for Dummies” type book. Not that you are a dummy; that’s just what they call those books! Deadlines for course withdrawals (without incurring academic or financial penalty) in the various semesters are as follows: • 31st of March for the February semester • 31st of August for the July semester. Any additional courses must be approved and submitted for processing by the end of teaching week 2 in both semesters. Summer courses: The last day to withdraw from a summer course is much shorter than standard semesters. While the deadline for course withdrawals is normally the end of the second week of the semester, still, it is important that students check and confirm the withdrawal deadline for summer courses at enrolment in December/January. If withdrawing from all courses for either semester (excluding summer), you must apply for a Leave of Absence for that period or your enrolment will be cancelled automatically. You must be enrolled in at least one course per semester, or be on Leave of Absence to maintain your place in your program. See your lecturer. It may be possible to catch up. On the other hand, you should try and ensure that your boss lets you know of any possible interruptions to your study as soon as possible. If you withdraw late, you will still incur fees.
