What Are NSW Students Studying at University?

Aug 11, 2014

We came across these statistics today showing what and where students across NSW commenced their University education in 2013.

With most students now through their Trial Exams, now is a great time to do some research into the courses that you might be interested in studying next year.

The coaching staff at HSC CoWorks are studying Law, Commerce, Engineering, Advanced Science, Media and Education at UNSW and USYD so if you have any questions about their University or their course be sure to ask them!

What are students studying at Uni?

Emma Cohen

This week HSC CoWorks Coach, Emma Cohen tells us about her University experience so far.

Which University do you attend? 

I am currently completing a Bachelor of Arts/Law at UNSW, with a Major in International Development and Minor in Philosophy.

What do you like about your course so far? 

My “Arts” components are really interesting, whereas I find law quite challenging. I love the amount of thinking and discussion my degree requires.

I am constantly confronted with new ideas and different view points, and I do love a good argument!

What do you like about your University?

UNSW is great! I live on campus, so I’m completely entrenched in campus life.

The best part of uni is the freedom and independence: the hours are flexible, the lectures are a more relaxed environment compared to school and you already have so much in common with everyone you meet!

So many students wait until they feel motivated or have a solid study plan before they begin 🙅‍♀️🙅
But in reality, motivation usually comes after the first action is taken. You don’t need the perfect plan. You just need the first step. 
Start small. Just start.
What does a week at CoWorks look like?
It’s not just one session. It’s not just one weekly touchpoint.
It’s a full system of support designed to build confidence and keep students consistently organised, proactive and motivated across the week.
We still have a few places available for Year 12 students across our campuses. If you’re interested, we’d love to invite you to a free 7-day trial so you can see why students choose CoWorks.

April Study Bootcamp is coming...
The April holidays are a critical time for Year 12 students preparing for the busiest assessment term of the year. While a short break is important, using some of this time to get ahead can make a huge difference for Term 2.
At Bootcamp, students will:
✅ Build essays for upcoming texts and modules
🎯 Practice exam-style responses for completed topics
💡 Strengthen readiness for Term 2 assessments
For Year 11 students, one third of the year is already complete. With only two terms until the HSC year begins, this is the perfect time to consolidate preliminary topics and build strong foundations.
Across the 4-hour structured session each day, students tackle English and other key “frog” subjects to ensure meaningful progress before the term begins.
